      History

      The Community Services Division was created in August 1992, during a major reorganization of the Ontario Ministry of Tourism and Recreation. The division replaced the defunct Tourism and Recreation Operations Division and assumed responsibility for regional offices of the Ministry, and also assumed responsibility for the new Provincial Sport, Recreation and Leadership Branch (formerly the Provincial Recreation Programs Branch).

      The Provincial Sport, Recreation and Leadership Branch included Bark Lake Leadership Training Camp and the Ontario Sports Centre. The regional offices were divided into 4 regions: Southern Region, Eastern Region, Northwestern Region and Northeastern Region.

      In 1993, the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation was merged with portions of the Ontario Ministry of Culture and Communications to form the Ontario Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Recreation. At this time the Community Services Division was disbanded.
