A State-of-the-Art Recreation Facility

The Town of Saugeen Shores plans to construct a new Aquatic and Wellness Centre (AWC) that will function as a recreational hub and destination facility for the region. The new facility will integrate recreational spaces to support the health and well-being of the Town’s regional residents and visitors, including youth, seniors, and those with disabilities. The new energy efficient AWC will be built upon, and adjacent to, the existing Saugeen Shores Community Complex (the Plex) in Port Elgin.

• Aquatic facility: pool with eight (8) 25-metre lanes; leisure/therapeutic pool; pool viewing area.
• Walking track.
• Wellness centre: conditioning centre with weights and fitness equipment; gymnasium and storage; fitness studio; multi-purpose rooms.
• Common areas: change rooms/washrooms; meeting rooms; offices/customer service areas; mechanical/ filtration/storage areas.

Designed with environmental sustainability at the forefront, this innovative facility will tie into the Town’s existing recreation infrastructure to create a space for community fitness, sports, and leisure activities available to all ages and abilities.
