Hants East MLA John A. MacDonald said pickleball is a rapidly growing sport that provides people of all ages and abilities with the opportunity to stay active and engaged in our community.
“This investment reflects our commitment to promoting healthy lifestyles and recreational opportunities for our residents,” said MacDonald.
With this investment from the Recreation Facility Development Grant Program, not-for-profit groups, Municipalities, and Mi’kmaq Band Councils will receive support as they develop, upgrade, or renovate recreation facilities.
