North Central Seniors looking for answers about a rec centre in College Heights

North Central Seniors Association is looking for answers about a rec centre in College Heights that will be geared for healthy aging on the west part of Prince George. Members have put out a survey to get some community input.

The board of the North Central Seniors Association (NCSA) knows there’s room for a building geared to help seniors age healthy in the College Heights area of Prince George.

“We have big plans for a seniors centre in College Heights that will be inclusive and welcoming to everyone 55 years and older to serve a part of the community that does not have its own seniors recreational centre – yet,” Maurice Lapointe, president of the North Central Seniors Association, said.

There are several seniors’ centres in and around Prince George but there’s nothing up in the College Heights area that’s designated just for seniors and NCSA wants to change that.

To that end NCSA has created a survey they are hoping people will fill out to help them determine what the needs are for people who are in the College Heights area.

The questions include what hours a recreational centre should be open to best serve the community, should meals be offered and what kind of activities should be featured at the rec centre geared for the mature population.

To access the survey contact Howard Foot at hfoot@telus.com.
