The City of Port Colborne is offering free public skating and community programs to help families stay active during March Break 2026. These activities are taking place across the community in Port Colborne, Ontario, providing local children with free options while schools are closed for the week.

Free skating sessions are being held at the Vale Health and Wellness Centre located at 550 Elizabeth Street. This centre is a joint partnership between the city and the YMCA of Niagara, which also offers various health and fitness programs at the facility.

The Port Colborne Public Library is offering extra activities for children and their families. These programs include STEAM activity kits and creative take-home projects designed to keep students engaged while they are away from the classroom.

City recreation staff and local partners organized these events to give families affordable ways to have fun using local public spaces. The programs are meant to provide a safe place for kids to play and learn during the holiday.
