TRANS CANADA TRAIL PAVILION UNVEILED

Released on September 14, 2002

The community of North Battleford unveiled its newest landmark, a Trans

Canada Trail (TCT) pavilion. The pavilion honours the completion of the 30

kilometre North Battleford-Prince portion of the TCT. North Battleford is

the third community to open a pavilion within Saskatchewan.



"The North Battleford-Prince portion of the trail is an excellent example

of how communities can work together to promote healthy active living and

use their local resources," Culture, Youth and Recreation Minister Joanne

Crofford said. "This pavilion will be a legacy for future generations."



The TCT is a national trail that will be more than 17,000 kilometres in

length, and once completed it will be the world's longest trail of its

kind. The portion of the TCT that routes through Saskatchewan will be

approximately 1,400 kilometres in length. TCT Pavilions recognize those

who have donated funds to build the TCT. The North Battleford pavilion has

a distinctive red roof and three double-sided acrylic panels that are

permanently inscribed with names of donors.



The Government of Saskatchewan is contributing $300,000 in Centenary Funds

over a three-year period to help communities complete the Saskatchewan

portion of the TCT. North Battleford began developing its portion of the

trail before the Centenary Funds were allocated, and as a result completed

the development of their trail and pavilion independent of government

funding.



The Saskatchewan Parks and Recreation Association (SPRA) will be managing

the administration of Centenary Funds, and community and volunteer trail

clubs are strongly encouraged to apply. "Assisting communities in the

development of trails in the province is an integral part of what SPRA

stands for," SPRA President Garry McKay said. "We are very excited and

appreciative of the money the government is allocating to trail building

and know that it will leave a very important legacy in our province."
