Prince Rupert Recreation

It’s Labour Day, so we’re putting the “labour” on pause!

The Recreation Complex will be 𝐜𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐲, 𝐒𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟕𝐭𝐡 for the holiday.

We’ll be back to our regular schedule on Tuesday, September 8th. And, even better, the Earl Mah Aquatic Centre will be open again after its annual maintenance closure!

Until then, enjoy the extra day to sleep in, get outside, or do absolutely nothing productive. We won’t judge. 😉

Have a great long weekend, Prince Rupert!
