the intermediate care
facility. Events

TERRACE — The City
of Terrace wants about a
quarter of a million
dollars of Expo legacy
money to upgrade the
swimming pool.

Parks and Recreation
director Al McNiven,
says plans are in the
works to expand the pre-
sent facility. That expan-
sion includes a teaching
pool, a whirlpool, new
wet and dry saunas and a
bigger weight room. And
that sits just fine with
several Terrace residents.

The 30 million dollar
Expo legacy fund was set
up by the province. It’s
meant to satisfy com-
munities not receiving
one of the many Expo
pavilions being dismantl-
ed when the world’s fair
ends in October. With
the exception of several
million dollars for a con-
vention center
toria, none of the money
has been officially hand-
ed out.
