Panorama Recreation Centre staff are building new programs, now that a new partnership with North Saanich parks has been approved.
Council said yes to a new policy that lets the rec centre use municipal parks, including the Free Ride bike park on Littlewood Road, for their programs. Staff will soon develop bike programs for rec centre users, which will take advantage of Free Ride Park as early as this summer.
“Not only will this partnership increase usage of the bike park, it will also provide meaningful recreation opportunities to the community, which will enhance participants’ quality of life and overall health,” said Claire Erdem, community recreation co-ordinator for Panorama. “In addition to the Free Ride Park, the Peninsula Recreation Commission will now be able to plan and facilitate programs at Dominion Brook Park, which will host various interpretive Elder College programs.”
