“The opening of the Leisure Centre, back in 2012, was a long-awaited facility for our community. Its opening marked a positive start to an amazing journey over the last 10 years, says Nick Warman, Manager of Recreation & Client Services. “Over 10 years we have continuously enhanced our services at the Centre. Every day is different, offering residents a full and diverse schedule of activities, from hockey in the arenas, drop-in basketball in the gymnasium, swimming lessons in the pool, and fitness members on the walking track. The Leisure Centre has realized its goal of becoming a facility that residents of all ages would embrace and enjoy. We look forward to continuing on this path of offering our community the best experience at our facility.”
