Zig Zag 2011 - FREE -Playground fun for 6-12 year olds

Zig Zag is the City of Fredericton’s unique supervised playground program. Four teams of enthusiastic student ‘park activity leaders’ will travel to 32 playgrounds throughout the city. Zig Zag is offered free of charge to interested children in the neighbourhoods visited. Activities are based on the interests of the children, the focus is on physical activity but some time is also spent on crafts, and quiet games. Check the lists below for the locations in your neighbourhood:

2011 Zig Zag Schedule

Registration Information: This is a drop-in program rather than a daycamp, which means that the children who attend are free to come and go as they wish. There is no advanced registration, and no registration fee, parents/guardians simply need to go to the neighborhood park with their child(ren) on the first day and fill out the necessary forms.

Please note: Zig Zag is the only supervised playground program to be delivered by the City of Fredericton Community Services Department this summer.
