Taking photos & videos
in the Centre:
We at Dovercourt take the safety of
our participants seriously. For this reason we ask you to
sign in before taking photos or videos of your little ones.
You will be asked to provide your name, the name(s) of participants
being photographed, your relationship to the participant(s)
as well as name of the program. The sign in sheets are available
at both reception desks. Instructors will be asking when they
see cameras in action.
We like to visit our programs and take pictures
from time to time. We take every effort to obtain permission
from the participants and their parents at the time. Please
let us know if you are shy.
- We proudly include pictures of
our program clients in our brochure, on our website and
in promotional materials directed to our clients
- We include a waiver on our receipts
and as part of our online registration process to let you
know that we “reserve the right to use photographs
and videos of our programs and special events for promotional
purposes”

| Welcome to
Dovercourt!
 Dovercourt
Recreation Association (DRA) is a not for profit charitable
organization formed in 1977 dedicated to enhancing the quality
of life in our community through recreation programs and services.
In 1983, the City of Ottawa began work on the planning of
a new community centre to replace the Westboro Community Centre.
DRA was actively involved in the process, and when the new
centre opened in 1987, Dovercourt was given the responsibility
of managing the new centre through a purchase of service agreement.
In this agreement, the City identifies services
it expects Dovercourt to provide to the community, and provides
annual cash funding and the use of the centre. While we are
part of the City of Ottawa’s recreation service delivery
system, the community is empowered to choose what programs
and services it runs to meet the community’s needs, and
how those programs and services are delivered. The City gets
a high level of customer satisfaction and a cost per user
significantly lower than centres managed directly by the City
of Ottawa.
Since the centre opened, Dovercourt attendances
have grown to over 350,000 visits per year, an operating budget
of 1.9 million, and most importantly, a reputation for responsiveness,
innovation, quality, and variety. DRA has also, through investing
in new equipment and facility improvements, made a contribution
of over $500,000 to the community it serves since the centre
opened.
Our motto, "A Community Working For
the Community, Une communauté qui travaille pour la
communauté" represents our volunteer Board of
Directors, elected from the community, and that it is the
community and our clients that call the shots. Staff, clients,
other community groups, local businesses and volunteers working
together…that’s Dovercourt!
