Every Wednesday at 9:30am, the Shop n' Stroll workout program turns your stroller into a portable fitness machine and takes baby along for the ride. These free classes consist of power walking combined with body sculpting exercises using exercise tubing, your stroller and the shopping centre environment. The last 15 minutes is devoted to socializing for mom/dads and songs for baby. Yes, Dads are welcome too!

Guildford Community Volunteer Patrol
The Guildford Community Volunteer Patrol office is located on site at Guildford Town Centre. Working with Concord Security, all volunteers patrol in pairs and are equipped with two-way radios and highly visible uniforms. Our goal is to raise awareness in the Guildford area which will result in making it a safer place for our families to work.
Volunteers wanted! If you love to walk or bike and have energy and enthusiasm to spare, you are just the kind of person we need. Volunteers are asked to commit approximately 4 hours a week and must be 19 years or older. All members of the Volunteer Patrol will be provided CAN Bike Level 2 training free of charge.
