ICYMI: Aberdeen Recreation Complex has a buyer, and big plans for the future
Mah, who runs Saskatoon’s North Ridge Development, has agreed to purchase the facility, and he thinks it can be a money-maker.
The complex — built in 2005 — carried a $1.9 million mortgage, plus high infrastructure and maintenance costs, when its crisis made the news last August. Aberdeen and District Charities Incorporated could no longer manage the facility after the town and RM stopped their funding. The plan is to close the four-sheet curling rink at the complex and turn it into a smaller skating pad geared towards hockey training. It also includes a regulation-sized main ice surface flanked by 1,200 seats and a 10,000 square-foot off-ice training facility upstairs.
“One thing,” says Mah, “that I’d like to think we can do, is have people, maybe even foreign students, come, go to school next door, stay at this facility or within the area. It would become something like a Wilcox; like Notre Dame. That’s probably Phase 2 of this project, but without a dream … everything starts with a dream.”
