The East Lambton Community Complex project in Watford is underway, with hopes of part of it being done for ice use in October, and the rest finishing up by June 2022. The new centre will replace Centennial Hall, with new hall spaces, a new YMCA partnership and gym, indoor track, and other new amenities. Theresa Klachan, Manager of Parks and Recreation for the Township of Warwick says it is time for the upgrade.
Klachan says they have had nothing but community support for the project, with everyone looking forward to the new space. She added that until the new complex is completed, Centennial Hall will remain open, and then once the new complex is open, Centennial Hall will be taken down and turned into parking spots.
