The first project is the construction of a new multipurpose recreation facility.
The Campbellford Recreation and Wellness Centre will include building an NHL-sized arena, a lane pool, therapy pool, a fitness room, and a multipurpose room. This will provide residents, and surrounding communities, with better access to updated facilities. The Canadian Federal Government is investing $4,134,669 into the project, with the Government of Ontario providing over $3,445,800 using the Community, Culture and Recreation Infrastructure Stream. The Municipality of Trent Hills is adding $8,589,500 towards the project.

On behalf of Council and the community, I’d like to say thank you for the investment from our partners in the Provincial and Federal governments.” – His Worship Bob Crate, Mayor of the Municipality of Trent Hills.
