The 2024 winter recreation program is now available. Registration begins on Tuesday, December 12 at 7 p.m.
Families
The Ville de Saint-Lambert offers a number of activities created specially for families. It offers a slew of shows, events, summer day camps, spring break camps, and other activities that will delight both children and their parents.
In order to ensure that the needs of families are properly met, the City updated its Family and Seniors Policy in 2020. This policy affirms the City’s commitment to placing families at the forefront of its actions by offering them a stimulating living environment that corresponds to their needs and expectations.
Among the services offered to children, day camps are highly appreciated by participants, but also by their parents.

Saint-Lambert has 13 parks equipped with recreational facilities, including 11 that have playgrounds, four that offer wading pools, and three with outdoor pools. Other than its recreational parks, the City also offers a number of smaller, ornamental parks with relaxation areas where you can have a picnic or just soak up some sun. Consult the parks directory to know more.
Crossing guards and school corridors
To enhance the safety of children attending our various local schools, the main streets leading to these schools have been designated as school safety corridors. They can be readily identified by their bright yellow signs, and crossing guards are stationed at the intersections of these routes before and after school.
Many organizations recognized by the Ville de Saint-Lambert devote all or a large part of their activities to families and children. Whether it is sports, artistic or community activities, you will find something for all your needs.
Consult the “Our organizations in action” microsite to know all the organizations and the services they offer.
