A Message from the Mayor Welcome to the Spring/Summer 2019 edition of the Leisure Guide. When you visit the Leisure Centre look for the True Sport banners in the building. Mission is part of the True Sport movement. Together we’re working on building a sport community based on the pillars of Respect, Fun, Inclusiveness, Fair Play, Staying Healthy and Giving Back. I encourage you and your friends and family to consider these goals whenever you’re out and getting active in our community. I am happy to report that the recent improvements at Griner, Heritage, Centennial, Hatzic, Kinsmen East and West, Blott and Fenn Parks are almost

ON THE FRASER

complete and ready for the community to enjoy. I also want to invite you to join me for a walk about Mission. Throughout 2019, Fitness staff are leading a series of community walks. I will be taking part in a number of these walks and invite you to join me in walking Mission together. Please visit our website for more information on programs and services offered through Parks, Recreation & Culture and our community partners. You can also connect with us on social media for updates and special announcements. We look forward to another active year in 2019 and wish you all the very best in the year ahead.
