Welcome to Kingston Gets Active!

Working together in collaborative partnership, Kingston Gets Active is a dedicated team that strives to mobilize communities to increase the number of accessible active opportunities. Although 52% of KFL&A residents are already active, the goal of Kingston Gets Active is to promote, encourage, and support a larger number of citizens to be active on a regular basis, and enjoy the many health benefits that come from being physically active!
