Speculation proves to be true
In this story Bob, I have troubling making my mind up, Spooner told Cobourg just what the BurdReport suspected a couple of days ago. There will be no aquatic facility in the new MULTI Million dollar recreation facility (CCC), and you know why --- because the YMCA has one. Well tough for them if the Town builds one, we need one and it should be in the CCC. In fact this study fails to do what irtshould have been told to do, and wasn't - consolidate recreational facilities under municipal control.
If all we are going to get out of the MILLIONS of dollars spent on this thing is more hockey facilities we have failed the general population of the Town and caved to the hockey rink rats and moms who hang out at the rink. Is hockey a rising demographic, are the facilities we have overloaded, could that overload be accomodated by one more pad instead of three? We will never know as this report will not change much in the travels through bureaucracy. So we started off with a simple request for more floor space by Seniors and ended up with an Arena fit for a Junior A team - some metamorphis!
