The new recreation centre in Corner Brook has been named the Marina Redmond Centre. It’s been a long time coming, and today, an official naming ceremony was held at the location on Grenfell Campus. First announced in 2020, the $25 million dollar facility was due to open in the summer of 2023. Mayor Jim Parsons says they wanted the centre to be named after someone who embodied the spirit of sport and the city. Marina Redmond served the city of Corner Brook for 27 years, most of that time spent as city clerk. She is survived by her husband Paul, and their two children, Michael and Emma. Marina Redmond was a long-time employee of the city who passed away in 2023 after a battle with cancer. The YMCA of Western Newfoundland will operate the new 30 space daycare at the Marina Redmond Centre.
