Canada Day is always our biggest event of the year, and our goal is to make 2026 even more memorable than years past!
Enjoy inflatables, miniature train ride, rock climbing wall, mini golf, human foosball, dunk tank, shows by Little Ray's and Junkyard Symphony, toddler zone, live DJ, face painting, balloon clowns, and more!
Food trucks will be on site again this year. We will also have snacks and drinks available for purchase at our fieldhouse canteen next to the splash pad. Please note that the canteen is cash only.
Fun passes for unlimited access to the rides and entertainment only cost $16 in advance (or $18 at the event, cash only) for ages 3+. Individuals not going on rides and toddlers under 3 years old are free. Advance passes

Join us at Claudette Cain Park on July 1 for a professional fireworks display sponsored by the Riverside South Limited Partnership (Urbandale, Richcraft, and HN Homes)!
Enjoy music starting at 8 pm and fireworks will begin at dusk (approx. 10 pm).
Snacks and drinks will be available for purchase at the fieldhouse in the south field (cash only). Glow products will be available for purchase (cash only) in both the south and north fields.
Parking is very limited on site and we recommend either walking to the park or parking at nearby lots.

Explore dozens of local vendors, artisans, businesses, and community groups while taking a break from the rides and activities. It's a great chance to shop local, discover new organizations, and connect with members of the community.

Events like this don't happen without the wonderful support of our volunteers. We have over 200 spots to fill, and as a thank you, our volunteers get free food for themselves and free fun passes for their kids/siblings.
High school students: this is a great opportunity to rack up some community volunteer hours!

Volunteer to take a 30 minute shift and raise money for your favourite charity, team or group!
Canada Day event attendees will have the opportunity to purchase throws to dunk their favourite person. 100% of the money raised by each person will go to support whatever they wish - it could be your child's sports team or school, a local charity that's near and dear to you, anything you like!
Spread the word to your family and friends about the time slot you pick and get ready for some fun in the sun!
