Naming rights deal announced for Beaverlodge Recreation Centre

Feb 13, 2023 | 5:15 PM

The town of Beaverlodge has announced a naming rights agreement for its recreation centre.

It will be known as the NuVista Energy Centre for a minimum of five years after the rights were purchased by the oil and natural gas company.

The multi-purpose facility, which is home to the town’s swimming pool, fitness centre, event room, and community centre, sees around 55-thousand visitors over the course of a year.

As part of the agreement, NuVista Energy made a further donation to the town to allow for the purchase of a pool deck inflatable slide and a climbing wall.

Mayor Gary Rycroft says Council and Administration are very appreciative of this support, and the relationship that has been established between the two organizations.

NuVista has contributed over 200-thousand dollars in donations and sponsorships to the town of Beaverlodge over the past three years, including $30,000 for new playground equipment, and $70,000 last year for a 21 passenger community bus.

A special ceremony will take place this spring to officially rename the facility.
