Halton Region is under a province-wide stay-at-home order

Premier Ford announced that in response to rising COVID-19 variant infections and hospitalizations, the government has declared a state of emergency and implemented a province-wide stay-at-home order. The stay-at-home order is in addition to the emergency brake shutdown already in affect and requires everyone to remain at home except for essential purposes. Review the Province of Ontario's website for information.

Under the stay-at-home order only leave your home for essential purposes:

  • work, if you can’t do it remotely
  • school
  • groceries
  • pharmacy
  • helping vulnerable people
  • outdoor exercise with members of your household

You should not travel outside your local community.

In response, community centres (including pools, fitness centres and arenas) and the Oakville Museum at Erchless Estate will be closed.

All registered recreation and culture programs. Drop-in activities, memberships, and indoor rental permits are cancelled. Refunds will be automatically issued to impacted customers.

Visit the Sports Fields page for the listing and information about field closures.

What do I need to know about requesting a sport field permit?

  • All grass fields are closed between October 1 and April 30. This allows the much needed time for the fields to rest, especially during the wettest time of the year when the most damage can occur.
  • This also provides the opportunity for our parks staff to provide routine maintenance, undertake necessary repairs, improvements, and renovations on an annual rotating basis.
  • Outdoor facility permits are required for any organized activity including picnics, practices, games, special events, tournaments and camps, and are only permitted in designated areas.
  • Parking is restricted to designated areas only.
  • Washrooms will be cleaned and stocked on a daily basis during the regular season.
  • Seasonal user group permits will be reduced by 5 per cent on the assumption that rain will force some cancellations of field use. For casual bookings, the fee will be returned if the game must be cancelled and an alternate date cannot be found.
