Canadian Tire believes that all kids should have the chance to run, skate, play, and grow. That’s why the Canadian Tire Jump Start program was started. Jump Start is a community-based, charitable program, developed and carried out by the Canadian Tire Foundation for Families. Jump Start helps kids between the ages of 4 to 18, who are in financial need, to participate in organized sports and recreational activities such as hockey, soccer, and swimming, by providing financial assistance with program registration fees.
During the registration evaluation process, community partners use a confidential procedure to select and refer children who meet the criteria and who could benefit from the program. In order to apply for Jump Start, parents and guardians may visit the Township of North Dundas office, located at 636 St. Lawrence St. in Winchester to fill out an application. Applicants also have the option to print, scan, and email requests. Email Brandon Cousineau, Recreation Coordinator or contact him by phone at 613-774-2105, ext. 223.

The Township of North Dundas realizes that recreational opportunities have affiliated costs and that these costs can make participation unaffordable. In order to eliminate these financial barriers, the Township of North Dundas has developed a fund called North Dundas Inclusion. While many great financial aids already exist and are available to residents of North Dundas, we realize that there are still some gaps that need to be filled.
Regardless of whether you would like to inquire about participation for an infant, child, youth, teen, adult or senior, financial aid may be available. All financial aid is confidential. Contact the Township to find out if you qualify, or to find out more about this program or other aids.

In June of 2008, the Township of North Dundas Recreation & Culture Department received $15,000 in funding from the Communities in Action Fund to purchase equipment for the first known Recreation Library in the area. The township has been working in partnership with local businesses to purchase various sorts of recreation equipment such as coolers, skates, balls, life jackets, bicycles, helmets, baseball gloves, bats, etc., are available, FREE OF CHARGE for community use.
This program functions like a library, with all new borrowers being asked to apply for a membership account at the time of their first loan request. At this time and thereafter, equipment will be signed-out and signed back in, by a township staff member. This program is great for all individuals, families, community groups, schools, churches, clubs, and teams residing in North Dundas. We would also like to thank the House of Lazarus in Mountain as well as community members, for numerous donations. We are always accepting donations of gently used or new recreation equipment, as well as monetary donations, to help sustain and expand the Recreation Library.
If you would like to inquire about items available for loan or make a donation, please Email Brandon Cousineau, Recreation Coordinator or contact him by phone at 613-774-2105, ext. 223.
The Township of North Dundas is pleased to offer our residents the use of skates, helmets, and ice walkers free of charge from our Skate and Helmet Lending Libraries. Located at both the Sam Ault and Chesterville arenas, these libraries are available during all public skating hours and ice bookings times, until the end of ice season.
This lending program functions like a library with all equipment being signed-out and signed back in at the arenas, by a township staff member. Equipment must not leave the arena from which it is borrowed and under no circumstances is equipment permitted to be disassembled in any manner.
We are always accepting donations of gently used skates and hockey helmets, as well as monetary donations to help sustain and expand the Skate and Helmet Lending Libraries.
