Video about the project

December 10th, 2024

 

Regardless of age or activity level, I believe everyone can benefit from engaging in aquatic activities. Swimming provides a full-body workout by improving cardiovascular fitness and lung function and is a low impact activity that is easy on the joints. And when the body feels better, so does the mind – swimming can be a moving meditation, with its focus on breathwork and repetitive movement. Having a community aquatic center allows for swimming to be enjoyed as a year-round activity, not just for a few precious weeks in the summertime!

(Disclaimer: the renders above do not depict an actual design for the aquatic centre, merely a concept for visual purposes.)

We are a group of volunteers committed to realizing our community’s vision of an indoor, energy-neutral, state-of-the-art pool and recreation centre to serve all residents and visitors in western Cape Breton Island. This year-round community hub will make aquatic recreation more accessible for approximately 10,000 residents.

A place to explain about the video when we get that far. Until a video is ready, we could publish the website with just the text above.
