91大黄鸭 kids can stay active, social, and on the move this summer with the return of the popular Rec & Ride Summer Youth Pass.
The discounted pass gives youth 18 and under unlimited bus access within 91大黄鸭 and entry to the Parkinson Recreation Centre (PRC) throughout July and August. It鈥檚 $20 for kids up to age 12, and $50 for youth ages 13 to 18.
鈥淲e are thrilled to once again offer this pass to help inspire kids to get active with us while they鈥檙e out of school for the summer, along with the ride to get here via BC Transit,鈥� said Lisa Ruether, recreation services supervisor. 鈥淲e invite kids and families in our community to take advantage of the pass and join us at PRC for a swim, workout or drop in to play sports in the gym.鈥�
Children aged 12 and under already ride for free on BC Transit, but now teens can hop on board as well.
鈥淧artnering with BC Transit makes this an invaluable pass for youth in our community,鈥� said Mike Kittmer, city transit and programs manager. 鈥淓ven when not travelling to and from PRC, being able to jump on a bus gives youth the freedom to better connect with friends, family and their favourite activities all summer long.鈥�
Passes are on sale at PRC (1800 Parkinson Way) and are valid from June 27 to Sept. 1. Kids must be present to have their photo taken, and youth aged 13 and older need to bring ID, such as a school card or driver鈥檚 licence. Transit use will be managed through a BC Transit Umo pass.
To encourage family participation, adults accompanying a youth with a Rec & Ride pass will receive a discounted $2 drop-in rate.
