The Ontario government is investing $11 million to protect jobs and support the construction of the new South End Community Centre and the Lyon Outdoor Pool Rehabilitation Project in Guelph.
These investments are part of the $200 million Community Sport and Recreation Infrastructure Fund (CSRIF), a province-wide initiative to revitalize local facilities, grow the economy, and promote active, healthy living across Ontario.
The government’s $10-million investment in the South End Community Centre will support the development of a 14,864-m2 (160,000-sf) multipurpose facility that will feature twin ice pads, a double gymnasium, an aquatic centre with a lap and teaching pool, multipurpose rooms, and community use spaces.
The new centre will operate seven days a week and offer a variety of programs to enhance community health, promote physical activity, and serve as a hub for residents of Guelph and the surrounding area.
Additionally, the province is investing $1 million in the Lyon Outdoor Pool Rehabilitation Project to upgrade the aging facility. These improvements will extend the pool’s lifespan to ensure continued access to outdoor aquatic programming and safe summer recreation for residents.
