Forest City Sport & Social ClubĀ ššš
Connect with other adults interested in rec league sports (incl trampoline dodgeball!) through Forest City Sport & Social Club. Dubbed ārecess for adults,ā itās a low-pressure way to get out and meet new people.Ā

Connect with your kids through Childreachās playgroups (including year-round outdoor play) or check out any of the dozens of other (free!) events they regularly offer.

Connect with nature while youāre connecting with others through the Antler River Rallyās monthly river clean-up or Reforest Londonās regular tree planting opportunities.

Connect with volunteer opportunities at several hundred charities and nonprofits across the city through Pillar Nonprofit Network.
