LLOYDMINSTER BENEFITS FROM $100 MILLION BUILDING COMMUNITIES PROGRAM

Released on December 13, 2006

Lloydminster's Common Wealth Centre will receive funding from Saskatchewan's $100 million Building Communities Program that has been designed to assist municipalities in addressing regional cultural and recreational infrastructure needs.

Culture, Youth and Recreation Minister Glenn Hagel was in Lloydminster today to announce that the Building Communities Program is providing $4.97 million to the multiplex facility.

The Building Communities Program supports the Provincial Government's commitment to making life better for Saskatchewan families and building a better future for young people.

"Cultural and recreational activities are key contributors to the quality of life that we celebrate in this province," Hagel said. "The City and residents of Lloydminster have demonstrated, through community initiatives that the Common Wealth Centre is essential to the vibrancy of the region. The Building Communities Program is one more way we are ensuring that Saskatchewan residents benefit from our strong economy."

The Common Wealth Centre opened in spring 2006. It boasts two ice surfaces, two field houses, a child play area and fitness, conference and professional services areas.

"This is a brand new structure that opened in May that provides great benefit to the community of Lloydminster and the surrounding region," Lloydminster Mayor Ken Baker said. "We are really happy that both the Alberta and Saskatchewan governments participated in the cost of the construction of this wonderful facility and our community will enjoy it for years to come."

The Building Communities Program will provide $100 million over three years – up to $20 million in the first year (2006-2007) and $40 million for each of years two (2007-2008) and three (2008-2009).

Complete information on the Building Communities Program can be found on the Department of Culture, Youth and Recreation's website www.cyr.gov.sk.ca.
