Looking for a fun way to explore different parks with your kids this summer? The City of Lethbridge Parks & Cemeteries team is delighted to bring back the Parks & Playground Passport for 2024.

The stream feature at Prarie Arbour Park will soon be flowing again. It has been inactive for the past two summers due to damage to its rubber lining.

Lethbridge’s latest culinary adventure is ready to roll!

Food trucks and mobile vending machines can now operate, without requiring specific permission, in three City of Lethbridge parks:

Lethbridge residents can slide into summer thanks to an upgrade at Legacy Park. A new stainless-steel slide is being installed at the Discovery Playground.

Lethbridge’s River Valley is home to a wide array of animals. Residents are never surprised to see deer, turtles or snakes. But there’s another type of serpent hiding in plain sight.

To prevent the spread of Dutch Elm Disease (DED) a province-wide pruning ban for all species of elm trees is in effect from April 1 to September 30, 2024. Pruning elm trees during this time exposes wounds that could provide entry sites for Elm Bark Beetles, a carrier of the DED fungus.

Efficiently watering trees ensures the urban forest will continue to thrive. This is especially important during periods of drought.

Beginning tomorrow, November 28, the Park ‘n’ Bark will once again be closed to the public to allow for the completion of the lighting project.

The work is expected to be completed by end of day Thursday, November 30, weather permitting.

Beginning Monday, November 20, the Park ‘n’ Bark will be closed to the public for the installation of light poles and bases.

The light fixtures will be installed at a later date which will complete the project of lighting the park.

The new Inclusive and Accessible Play Space at Galt Gardens is now open. Located immediately adjacent to the Rotary Centennial Fountain in the southeast corner of the four-hectare park, the new space features inclusive and accessible play equipment, rubber surfacing, a plaza space and park furniture.
