Vernon Active Living Centre nears completion amid $136M construction
The City of Vernon has provided a media preview of the $136 million Active Living Centre (ALC) as construction nears completion. The project is currently on schedule following a previous timeline delay.
Key upcoming milestones include filling the facility's pools on September 14 and reaching substantial completion on October 30. Once the ALC is ready, the existing Recreation Centre's aquatic centre will be decommissioned on October 30, though the center will remain open for dryland activities. Staff and lifeguard training is slated to begin in early November, with tentative public access expected in December.
The new facility features an eight-lane 50-metre pool, a teaching pool, a leisure pool, a waterslide, a fitness centre, a double gymnasium, and a 189-metre indoor track.
