Ramara Recreation offers programs and activities aimed at youth that promote physical literacy, social interaction, mental well-being, special interests and community participation. Our youth programmer Justine Bayne would love to hear from you! 

Youth Programs

Youth programs are held all year long and are part of our community recreation program line up. We recruit quality instructors to keep our youth engaged in a variety of fun and skill-building activities. Programs vary by season but some of our favourites are offered all year round.

Youth Action Council 

The Youth Action Council is made up of community minded teens (grades 7-12) who want to make a difference in Ramara. They meet as a group monthly to plan events and activities with the youth programmer. They participate as chaperones at dances and youth nights and represent their community at local festivals. For more information – contact Youth Programmer Justine Bayne.

Photo Gallery: Youth Action Council will appear here on the public site.

Youth Night Drop In Programs

Youth Nights are held once a month at the Ramara Centre on Friday nights (usually the 2nd Friday of the month) from 7 pm to 10 pm. Open to ages 11-15 years, this is a safe space for youth to hang out and make friends. They are planned BY YOUTH and FOR YOUTH so there is always a theme attached to the night and many different pockets of activities usually break out during the night. Youth are encouraged to participate as little or as much as they want but must follow some simple rules – Respect Yourself, Respect Others and Respect Property. Plus there's always food involved. Best of all, it's FREE!

NOTE- This is a drop off program, youth will be required to sign in and leave a phone number to call. Since there is no public transportation in the area, staff will make inquiries about safe travel home at the end of the evening. For more information on this month's theme or to suggest an activity you may want to try – check out and follow Ramara Youth Action Council on Instagram.

NOTE -  IN PERSON PROGRAMS ARE CURRENTLY SUSPENDED DUE TO COVID 19 - PLEASE CHECK BACK LATER.

Youth Dances

Youth dances are generally held once a month at the Ramara Centre. Youth in grades 4-8 are welcome. This is a chaperoned event with a live DJ on site and the snack bar is open. Theme nights in the past include black light glow in the dark, Christmas and Halloween themes. Door prizes are claimed at every dance! Check out the Ramara Recreation Guide for dates or follow us on social media @Ramara Recreation.
