Walking Poles

Walking poles help to provide grip, improve balance, and aid with stability on all types of surfaces. They can even take pressure off the lower back, knees, and hips.

Stay fit, active, and moving all year long with these great activity kits. Each kit contains an Active Easy duffel bag, 2 x 2.5-pound dumbbells, green resistance band, mini band, and purple ball.

We want everyone to have the opportunity to borrow and enjoy these items all summer long! Items can be borrowed for two weeks at a time and then dropped off on their due date at a Halton Hills Public Library service desk, at either branch, during regular operating hours.
