Our Mission
The Play Well focus team develops, implements and/or supports policy, systems and environmental change to facilitate growth and maintenance of public parks, recreational facilities, open space and other resources in order to increase safe and accessible places for physical activity for all users. Facilitates the development of programs that encourage utilization of parks and open spaces and play. Supports initiatives that connect people to physical activity and other play resources.
Our Vision
We envision Kingston as a place where people of all ages enjoy easy access to high quality parks, playspaces, and open space and where people can participate in fun, active activities and play, using a variety of accessible equipment and through age appropriate programs.
What we are doing!
We meet monthly on the fourth Friday at noon at City Hall. RSVPs are appreciated.

- Encourage use of, and access to, City of Kingston parks for all users
- Encourage community support of public spaces
