City Crews making ready outdoor sports venues as spring season arrives

City of Prince Rupert work crews have been busy this week tending to some outdoor maintenance, working at a number of locations soon to be back in use after a winter's hibernation 

Crews were working on the Rotary Tennis Court location on Thursday afternoon, as well as to prepare some of the sports fields at the Recreation Centre for what will be a busy spring and summer season ahead.

The Ball fields for the most part are turned over to the various softball leagues around the city through the spring; while the Tennis/Basketball courts get an active work out from tennis enthusiasts and basketball players.

Minor Soccer and the Rugby played in town also have a number of fields to make use of including the Charles Hays field and that at PRMS.

Whether it's outdoors or inside the Jim Ciccone Civic Centre and Earl Mah Aquatic Centre you can find out more about Recreation programs from the Spring and Summer Recreation guide available here.

  1. Time to get the street sweeping going. The dust on the roads is not healthy for all the walkers.

    1. The street sweeper is especially needed around the backfilled excavations around town. There is gravel and stone everywhere near them.
      I hope they aren't waiting for the contracted street sweeper.
