Did you know you can jump out of a plane, and have fun, in Brandon? Well we do have our own Parachute club here.

The club was created in the 1960′s and is based at the Brandon Airport. There are regular jumps in the summer and it’s always looking for new members.

There are six different tennis courts in the city of Brandon. For one of them you have to pay, that’s the one situated at the recreation center. However you are most likely to be able to find a free court there.

My personal favorite is the courts on Queen Elizabeth Park.

The city of Brandon has a huge amount of swimming pools all over. The largest swimming pool is located in the Sportsplex on the North end of the city. It has two large pools and the biggest waterslide in the city in the shallow pool.

On certain days admission is reduced and sometimes Tuesdays are free days. But take note that it tends to get very busy on free days.

Brandon has a few skating rinks with 2 being serviced all year round. Although at the keystone center you wont be able to skate.

The real good skating starts in the winter where the city sets up a skating area beside the 18th st. bridges. It’s well lit and gets quite busy and is easily the featured attraction of our city in the winter.

Only two locations to play lawn bowling. One is at Rideau park and the other at Stanley park. Neither will be very busy as few people use either locations. The greens should be properly maintained as they are kept by the city.

The gun club is located south of the city by the #10 highway. You can regularly see people shooting and using the facility. It’s a fantastic little range and it’s the only place in the city that you can use other then a few isolated shooting ranges.
