An investment of 1.2 million dollars from the federal government will go toward retrofitting the Gilbert Plains Recreation Complex.
The funding, announced on Friday, will help construct accessible bathrooms, change rooms, and other features which are expected to be completed in 2025.
This work adds to the new ice rink refrigeration system which is already in use at the facility's arena and curling rink.
In a news release, Gilbert Plains CAO Courtney Roehl says the municipality greatly appreciates the support from both the federal and provincial government and they look forward to all of the upgrades being complete.
