If the Regional Recreation Centre is being built with my tax money why will I have to buy a Y membership to access the Health Fitness Recreation Centre facilities?
A. Tax money is being used to build the new facility. Once it is built the Family Y will be responsible for financing their operations without any subsidies from the City or surrounding municipalities. Just as it does with its current facility, the Family Y will operate the new facility on a break-even basis. There are different ways to participate at the Family Y: by registration in a program, by a drop-in day pass or by membership. The Family Y is a community based non-profit charity. As in the past, users of the arena portion of the facility will continue to contribute user fees either directly through the city or indirectly through local sports associations (i.e. minor hockey, figure staking, lacrosse, etc.).
