The Town has expanded its recreational drop-in programs to the Erie Migration District School gym, starting with programming on Wednesdays and Thursdays.

Every Wednesday and Thursday from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM, the school’s gym hosts the Town drop-in programs including Badminton, Pickleball, Open Gym, and Dodgeball. Additionally, starting May 20, 2025, new programs—including basketball, volleyball, floor hockey, table tennis and more—will be open over an expanded six-day schedule.

This agreement between the Town of Kingsville and the Greater Essex County District School Board gives the Town access to the school’s modern gym facilities to expand recreational opportunities in Kingsville, while giving the school access to the Town’s facilities.

“This is a win for both residents and students in our community and a major step as we work through council’s strategic plan. Council is happy to support program growth here and provide the community the means to participate and be successful.” said Mayor Dennis Rogers.

“The Board is excited to expand its community partnership with the Town of Kingsville. The opportunity for our students at Erie Migration District School to access Town facilities not only enhances their Health and Physical Education curriculum but also enriches extracurricular programming with amenities that would otherwise be unavailable. We’re equally pleased that Erie Migration District School can serve as a shared space, supporting a wide range of programming for the broader community,” said Vicki Houston, Director of Education at the Greater Essex County District School Board.
