Recreation and Cultural Services provide a number of benefits to our community. These benefits help strengthen families, build healthy communities, improve the quality of life for Weyburn and area residents, provide the healthy development of children and provide leaders.
To help promote the recreational and cultural services in the community, the City of Weyburn publishes two Leisure Guides annually. The Spring/Summer edition is released at the end of March and the Fall/Winter guide is released at the end of August to the public. The guide provides information on recreational and cultural activities provided in Weyburn by both the City and community associations.
The City of Weyburn will be developing the Spring/Summer edition (April 1 - August 31, 2018) of the Leisure Service Guide this winter. All community organizations may submit information to be placed in the leisure guide at no charge. All information must be submitted by Friday, February 23, 2018 to be included in the guide.
