Big Changes Coming to the Stellarton Memorial Rink
Big news for Stellarton!
The Stellarton Memorial Rink has seen a lot of history over the years. It was built in 1947 to honour fallen war vets from the community. It hosted local hockey teams, boxing matches, homecoming dances, and community events.
Over the past few years, the rink has been shut down. But a dedicated group of volunteers have come together to breathe new life into the building, and to give back to their community.
Today, we announced that we are investing $6 Million to help the community build a new recreational facility and community centre!
The new project will be home to basketball, volleyball, and pickleball courts, as well as a walking track, meeting rooms, and stage for events.
Thanks to everyone from the Stellarton Memorial Community Centre Association (SMCCA) for their efforts in re-opening this important part of our community, and to the Town of Stellarton, and Province of Nova Scotia for their help in making this project a reality.
