Alberta government investing $14M into sport and recreation facilities

The Government of Alberta is investing $14 million into 20 sport and recreation projects across the province.

The government has allocated the funding through its Active Communities Initiative, its first grant program dedicated to sport and recreation infrastructure.

“I am proud to support active and healthy lifestyles for Albertan families through the Active Communities Initiative. These investments will enhance recreation opportunities and create lasting benefits for athletes of all ages across the province,” said Boitchenko.

Government officials estimate the 20 projects should stimulate more than $46 million in economic activity across the province.
