Keep your family smiling and experiencing with this list of activities.

World’s Largest Chess Set and GIANT King Piece

Bask underneath the sun and enjoy a game of chess on the World’s Largest Chess Set. Contact mhchess.com to book your game. Bill Taylor is the visionary of the popular space, which has been in Medicine Hat since August 2005. 

He also worked with expert woodworker Adam Szulski for several years to design a 21-foot-tall, over 4,000 pound, GIANT King Piece and installed it beside the Chess Set on Nov. 4, 2021.

Windmill Garden Centre and Butterfly House

John’s Butterfly House is located inside Windmill Garden Centre. This tropical paradise has hundreds of butterflies. Relax on the deck and read about the life cycle and habits of the beautiful insects. Stroll the walkway to observe the red-eared turtles and swimming Koi.

Disc Golf

Leinweber Park is conveniently located beside Gilwell Park, turning the nine-basket disc golf course into an 18-basket course. Lay down a blanket, pack a picnic, bring some more activities, and enjoy the game with a view.

Ross Glen Water Park

This waterpark is full of fun features, like a giant bucket that fills with water and pours over those who stand underneath it. There is a large green space to lay a blanket and bask in the sunshine and have a picnic. This park is located in a family-orientated neighbourhood near the south side of the City close to hotels, restaurants, and shopping.

Space Arcaders

Load up your e-token card, and let the playing begin. A large variety of new and retro games, from racing to sports, and claw machines to virtual mazes. Once you’re all played out, collect your prizes to take home.
