Cognashene Recreation Program

Cognashene Cottagers Recreation Program

For decades, the Cognashene Cottagers Association Summer Recreation program has been providing opportunities for the younger members of our community to build friendships and develop a love and respect for our small part of Georgian Bay. 

Program activities are offered for children from ages 2-14. Volunteer and employment opportunities are available for young people aged 14 and up. Most activities are held on Arthur Island but some activities may be held at other local locations such as the Cognashene Community Church. 

 To participate in any aspect of the recreation program, each child must be registered and have a signed waiver completed. Day guests are invited to join our program when signed-in by current participants. Cash payments for day guests can be made the day of at program drop off with the Head of Program. If you have any questions about the program, please contact us at RECPROGRAM@COGNASHENE.COM.
