It doesn’t stop there, either. Neighbouring areas right on the border with Glenwood contain North Island College, an aquatic centre, a museum, a library, and even more shopping options.

Things To Do in Glenwood
Bob Dailey Stadium
Want to get into shape but don’t know where to start? The track at Bob Dailey Stadium is a perfect place to get in your steps for the day. Even if the sun has set, the track is lit up, making it perfect for a cool evening run on the rubber surface. The oval track has a field in the middle, often the site for soccer and football games. Bleachers along the side offer a resting place for in-between laps or those wanting to watch a game on the field. Off one end of the track is an outdoor fitness park that uses body weight to work out effectively. This is a place to exercise at your own pace while you take in some fresh air.
Alberni Valley Multiplex
Next to Bob Dailey Stadium is the Alberni Valley Multiplex - home of the AV Bulldogs hockey team! This building contains two ice arenas and a concession stand. The smaller rink is mainly for hockey leagues and general ice skating. The larger rink seats over 1800 people and is the place to watch the Bulldogs win at hockey. Port Alberni hockey fans are passionate about their team, making each game a very memorable and exciting experience.
Roger Creek Park
The lush forest bordering Glenwood has a beautiful park on its western edge. Roger Creek Park contains several walking trails and an outdoor water park. On hot summer days, many families enjoy having lunch at a shaded picnic table and then letting the kids burn off steam in the waterpark. Not into that much noise? No problem - the park is very large and has additional seating, calm trails, and plenty of peace and quiet.
Glenwood Sports Centre
Rollerskating, rollerblading, indoor soccer, and floor hockey all have a home at Glenwood Sports Centre. When sessions aren’t booked, this is also the leading site for special events, weddings, and a kid's favourite for birthday parties. The building is large and wheelchair accessible. Plus, it’s directly next to Bob Dailey Stadium, making it a convenient addition to the fitness options in the area.
Alberni Athletic Hall
When the original Athletic Hall tragically burned in a fire, instead of rebuilding it on the same site, it was decided to be put in the Glenwood area. Located directly next to the Alberni Valley Multiplex, the Alberni Athletic Hall is yet another option for sports and special events. This is both a sports and a community centre. Many special events like rock and gem shows, craft fairs, and massive garage sales are featured here yearly. Drop-in sports like basketball or badminton are also available.
Alberni District Fall Fair
Once a year in September, the city comes together for a weekend of fun at the Alberni District Fall Fair. This fair contains a midway with rides, carnival games, farm animals, live music, contests, and plenty of fair food to choose from. It is a local favourite event in the hub of Glenwood.
