Recreation Month Calendar 2026

ParticipACTION Community Challenge Returns to Bluewater for 2026

The ParticipACTION Community Challenge, presented by Novo Nordisk, returns this year to help people in Canada enjoy the many physical, social, and mental health benefits of getting active together!

This national physical activity and sport initiative encourages everyone in Canada to get active throughout June, ultimately recognizing Canada’s Most Active Community and awarding it $100,000 to support local physical activity and sport initiatives.

To help rally the Municipality of Bluewater and compete for the grand prize this year, we need as many people as possible to participate!

Get involved!

Organizations can register their June physical activity, sport programs, events, and/or initiatives on ParticipACTION’s website. Throughout June, track the number of participants taking part in these activities to help our community compete for the title of Canada’s Most Active Community.

Active groups of two or more people can also register, and track their minutes, your selected group leader will register and track your group’s June physical activities on the website, all of which will count toward our community’s total progress.
Join the Municipality of Bluewater in the movement to build a stronger, healthier, and more active community!
