A new aquatics facility in Lac La Biche has been approved to be added onto the Bold Centre to the tune of $44.9 million. That does include 9 million from the province and 6 million from the feds to build a facility that will house a lazy river, teaching and leisure pool, 6-lane competition pool, 2 hot tubs, a Nordic spa and wellness area, and more. The borrowing bylaw does have to go to a second and third reading at a future meeting, for a 20-year term at 6%. The facility is projected to open in 2026.
