    Still more time before the city gets the keys to the new recreation centre

    The $25 million dollar facility includes multiple pools, a fitness area and a daycare, which will be operated by the YMCA.

    Corner Brook Mayor Jim Parsons says it could still be another couple of weeks before the keys to the new recreation centre are handed over. The $ 25 million dollar facility includes multiple pools, a fitness area and a daycare, which will be operated by the YMCA. It was announced in 2020 and was scheduled to be open in the summer of 2023. That was pushed ahead to last September due to issues with the pool. Parsons says the pools are ready but there are still a few things to take care of. He says the new centre will be a huge asset for the city and its residents.
