Calendar of activities

In these exceptional times, health is obviously the priority for all residents. Chelsea's Recreation, Sports, Culture and Community Life Department has decided to make a calendar of activities available to citizens while respecting government recommendations.

This calendar will offer two activities per day covering several aspects such as: physical activity, nutrition, mental balance, culture, the outdoors and education. It is up to you to choose according to your tastes and interests.

In this time of uncertainty, it is important to take a moment to change your mind and your recreation department is not giving up and is offering this initiative to help you get through this challenging time!

Stay tuned every Monday, we will propose a new activity calendar.
