Wellness in the Park: Launching Our Outdoor Community Wellness Program

At Moncton Cares, also known as NB Cares, we believe wellness is not only about exercise. It is also about connection, friendship, mental health, community belonging, and creating safe spaces where people can feel welcome. As a growing Multicultural Center, Moncton Cares is proud to launch its Outdoor Community Wellness Program at Centennial Park, Moncton, from June to August, every Wednesday and Thursday from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM.

This Wellness Program is designed to bring people together in a natural, relaxed, and friendly outdoor environment. Many people in our community are looking for affordable ways to stay active, meet others, reduce stress, and enjoy the summer season. Through this community program by Moncton Cares, participants can take part in simple wellness and recreation activities while also building meaningful relationships.

The idea behind the program is simple: wellness should be accessible to everyone. Whether someone is a new Canadian, a long-time resident, a senior, a youth, a parent, or someone who simply wants to meet new people, this program offers a welcoming space to participate at their own comfort level.

Our Outdoor Community Wellness Program encourages Networking in Nature, where people can connect while enjoying fresh air, movement, and conversation at Centennial Park, Moncton. In today’s busy world, many individuals experience loneliness or social isolation. Outdoor wellness activities can help people relax, feel more confident, and create new friendships in a natural setting.

The program also supports participants to Build Friendships through shared activities. Sometimes, a simple walk, stretch, group activity, or conversation in the park can become the beginning of a strong community connection. For many people, especially those who are new to the area, these informal moments of connection are very important.

Recreation is also an important part of this initiative. Through light physical activities, outdoor movement, and social wellness sessions, participants can improve their physical and mental well-being. The program is not focused on competition. It is focused on participation, inclusion, confidence, and joy.

At NB Cares / Moncton Cares, we continue to create programs that bring people from different cultures, ages, and backgrounds together. Our Wellness Program reflects our mission to build a connected, inclusive community where everyone can contribute and succeed.

We invite community members to join us at Centennial Park, Moncton, every Wednesday and Thursday from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, June to August, and be part of this meaningful outdoor wellness journey.
