LET'S BUILD A SPORTS CENTER IN MONTRÉAL-NORD!

What does a sports center mean to you? A place where people engage in sports activities. Yes but not just that! For us, a sports center is a place that brings together enthusiasts of all ages, a place where young and old alike can thrive in a healthy and safe environment, but also a place that embodies hard work, achievement, team spirit, discipline, perseverance, and resilience.

So when we hear about plans for a new sports center in our city, we can’t help but be excited at the thought of seeing it come to life, because we see this project as having real potential for social connection. And we’re in a pretty good position to speak to this, since we spend every day in the heart of the Claude-Robillard Sports Complex, a legacy of the 1976 Olympics that sees hundreds of athletes—beginners, professionals, young people, and retirees—come together for the same goal: to play sports and do themselves some good!

So no, it’s not normal for Montréal-Nord to be the only area of this size in Quebec that doesn’t have a sports center or indoor pool. Residents of Montreal-Nord should not have to travel several kilometers by public transit to access quality sports facilities.

That is why it is essential to reach out now to key figures in the sports community in metropolitan area to rally behind this cause, but also to enable the government to significantly to its success. to its success.

PROJECT INFORMATION AND PROGRESS

A project that will change the lives of many generations!

The Montreal North Borough will build a sports center on the site of the former Garon Arena, which will include:

• a double gymnasium
• a gym
• two swimming pools
• a gym
• a three-lane walking track
• a multipurpose hall
• a 300-seat bleacher section

To date, an initial funding target has been reached, allowing the aquatic section to become a reality. However, another 50% of the funding still needs to be secured in order to hope to finance the construction of the sports center in its entirety.
