The Town of Saugeen Shores has hired a consulting firm to conduct a study for a new recreation facility in partnership with the YMCA.
The study by LeisurePlan International will determine the potential market and demand for programs, activities and services that may be provided at the new facility.
It will include a telephone survey of adult residents of Saugeen Shores to obtain their opinions concerning their present and future participation in recreation, fitness, health and aquatic programs and activities. The phone survey will be done over the next few weeks.
The facility would replace the 43-year-old Centennial Pool, and accommodate the recreation needs of the growing population of Saugeen Shores.
The YMCA would operate the recreation facility on behalf of the Town.
