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

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 Recreation Programmer Arlana Bickell. 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. Photo Gallery: Youth Nights will appear here on the public site.
