Regina residents hoping to sign up for swimming lessons and fitness programs in Regina this summer will be able to do so starting at 7 a.m. on Tuesday.

The City of Regina’s Summer Leisure Guide is available online with a wide range of programs, according to a release from the city.

Verified residents will be able to register for activities on May 12, while non-residents and non-verified residents will be able to sign up on May 19.

The city noted that resident verification is required to access early registration and resident pricing.

Diana Burton, director of recreational and cultural services for the city, said the leisure guide has options for everyone.

“The Summer Leisure Guide provides residents with opportunities to stay active, connect with others and enjoy a wide range of recreation experiences throughout the summer,” Burton said in a statement.

This year, the summer leisure guide is offering the highest number of programs in recent years, with 1,199 options for residents.

“The increase reflects the return of full programming at Sandra Schmirler Leisure Centre, which was closed for scheduled maintenance during the summer of 2025,” the city noted.

Outside of official programming requiring registration, five outdoor pools and 16 spray pads across the city are available to residents through the summer to cool down. Residents can also participate in drop-in fitness and recreation options like aquacise and adult swim.

Several new programs are being introduced this year. A group singing class by SaskMusic is designed for people 18 years and older who are beginners or returning musicians hoping to “build confidence in a group setting.”

A LEGO engineering and robotics class is being offered for kids between the ages of six and 13, where children will be able to “build moving models, mosaics and 3D structures at hands-on stations with older children advancing to the Spike Prime platform to build and program robotic models using block and Python coding.”

A free, drop-in summer program called fun spots will also bring recreational games and sports like soccer and basketball, along with creative arts and crafts to Regina neighbourhoods. Children must have a parent or caregiver attend the program with them.

The city said it is working to keep strengthening and expanding inclusive and adapted programming, as well as reducing participation barriers for people living in Regina with disabilities.

“Returning adapted programs include Adapted Leisure Swim and the Evening Adult Social Program, along with new offerings such as Adapted Teen Gym Orientation at the Fieldhouse, North West Leisure Centre and South Leisure Centre,” the city stated. “Free admission for approved external support attendants and access to free inclusion support services are also available.”

Address verification should be completed by residents before May 12 and can be done during regular operating hours at select leisure centres.

“Unverified residents will not be able to register until May 19 and will be subject to the 50 per cent non‑resident surcharge,” according to the city.
