On Monday June 26, I was joined by the Honourable<\/strong> Brian Wong, MLA Waverley, Fall River, Beaver Bank<\/strong><\/a>, Cathy Deagle Gammon, District 1 Councillor<\/strong><\/a> and Lisa Blackburn, District 14 Councillor, Middle\/Upper Sackville, Beaverbank, Lucasville,<\/strong> along with many members of Fall River and the surrounding community to announce plans to build a brand new all-weather turf field next to Lockview High School to replace the current grass field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program<\/strong>, our government was able to contribute $1,960,000, 40% of the project\u2019s budget to help create something the community will be able to enjoy for decades to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A special thank you to Rita Nigam<\/strong> and her team of volunteers for their many hours of work in making this five year dream a reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
