The Town of Blackfalds has released its 2026 Spring and Summer Program and Activity Guide, providing residents with a central resource to plan their seasonal recreation. The guide is available to view online through the town website, though printed copies can also be picked up at the Abbey Centre and the Civic Centre.
The guide outlines a variety of local offerings, ranging from fitness and arts programs to community events such as Blackfalds Days and the Blackfalds Jump Jam. Families looking for youth programming can now register for Camp Curious, which runs from June 29 to August 28, 2026, for children between the ages of 6 and 11. [Registration and pricing details are available on the Town of Blackfalds website.] Additionally, the town continues to offer C’AMPED professional development day camps throughout the year for children ages 6 to 11 at a cost of $37.50 per day, with extended care options available.
Residents can also prepare for the opening of the Outdoor Aquatic Centre, which is set to welcome visitors for the season on May 15, 2026. This facility is part of the broader Abbey Centre, which features over 41,000 square feet of indoor recreation space. The centre houses a field house, a fitness centre, an indoor track, a 3-story indoor play space, and an amphitheatre. Notably, the building holds the distinction of being the only facility in Canada where the Trans Canada Trail travels indoors.
Those interested in signing up for programs or seeking more information about registration can contact the Guest Services at Abbey Centre.
