Upgrades at an aquatic centre on Vancouver Island have been completed.
The District of North Cowichan says a major renovation and expansion project at the Cowichan Aquatic Centre recently concluded.
The project included the expansion of the centre’s competitive pool deck, gym, group fitness rooms, and spin room. New folding bleachers and private spaces for fitness consultations were also added to the aquatic facility.
“We are so excited that this construction is now fully complete,” North Cowichan Mayor Al Siebring said in a media release. “This well-loved facility has the extra room to accommodate more users and groups so that even more folks can come together in pursuit of health and wellness.”
Siebring added that the expansion of the centre’s deck and user group space enhances the district’s ability to bid on more “competitive opportunities.”
Construction on the aquatic centre began last June and continued even though the facility closed due to COVID-19. The majority of the remaining work was complete when the aquatic centre reopened to the public back in October.
