Message from the city of Oshawa:

Hello Sport Users

Please note the Facility Booking Office has recently received some complaints from patrons who have been affected by exposure to second-hand smoke at City of Oshawa sports fields and diamonds.

There is a provincial by-law which protects residents and workers with Durham Region from the serious health hazards associated with exposure to second-hand smoke. Staff from the Durham Region Health Department are currently enforcing the by-law through ongoing inspections and in response to complaints. Fines for smoking can be issued.

At this time, we are asking for your assistance in reminding your sport program participants and parents/family/friends of any participants of the provincial Smoke Free By-law which states that on “children’s  playgrounds and publicly-owned sports fields that it is illegal to smoke on and within 20 metres of children’s playgrounds and publicly owned sport fields and surfaces (e.g., areas for basketball, baseball, soccer or beach volleyball, ice rinks, tennis courts, splash pads and swimming pools that are owned by a municipality, the province or a post-secondary education institution)”. As a friendly reminder, information regarding a Smoke-Free Ontario was sent to you all in your initial Application Procedures for Community Fields, Community Ball Diamonds, Civic Fields, and the Civic Recreation Complex Fieldhouse.

For more information on the Smoke Free Ontario Act, please refer to this website link. Contact information for Durham Region Health Department Environmental Help Line is: 905-723-3818 or 1-888-777-9613 ext. 2188.
