Paddling

We hold regular evening paddles at various locations in the County for as long as weather permits. We’ve grown to up to 80+ people, heading out safely in groups of no more than 15.

Paddles are usually every Thursday at 6:30pm from the beginning of May to the end of September. Paddlers come with their canoe, paddle board or kayak and everyone is welcome to join.

Send us an email if you wish to be added to the list for regular updates pictonrec@gmail.com

All paddles are subject to change based on weather and water conditions. Any changes will be posted by 4 pm on Thursday on the PRC Facebook page.

Please contact Mac Ross at malcom.ross22@gmail.com or 613-393-5908.

** for all programs run out of PECI please watch our Facebook page for date changes and potential cancellations.

Pickleball

In summer we play Pickle Ball outside at the Benson Park court at the following times:

  • Monday and Friday evenings from 6-9pm

  • Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 9am-12pm.

There is no cost to play at Benson Park. We have all the equipment so you just need running shoes and a padle. Check the PRC Facebook page for updates or contact Bev Humphrey at blhme@outlook.com.

Fall/Winter/Spring Pickleball

In the cooler months we move indoors to PECI. Pickleball is played Thursday and Friday evenings from 6.30 to 9pm. The cost to ‘drop-in’ to play is $3 per evening. It is more cost efficient to pay $15 for an entire session (Oct-Dec & Jan - April)

Badminton

From October to April, Badminton enthusiasts usually play at Prince Edward Collegiate Institute (PECI) in Picton on Tuesday evenings from 6:30 to 9 PM. The cost is $3 per night or $15 for each of two terms. We have all the equipment so you just need running shoes. Check the PRC Facebook page for updates on resuming badminton.

Volleyball
New for the 2022/2023 season is volleyball. There is an 8-team league with folks on a stand-by list. Volleyball is played at PECI on Friday evenings from 6.15 - 10am. If you have questions please direct them to pictonrec@gmail.com or message us via our facebook page.
