About this project
The Municipality of Thorne is seeking funding to pour cement and create a permanent outdoor rink facility. This will provide the community with a public location to join together and engage in physical activity. The goal and objective of this project is to encourage residents and weekend visitors to get outside and enjoy the small Township of Thorne. By cementing the outdoor rink surface area, we are creating a year round facility for residents to use. Youth and adolescents can use the surface for ball hockey and roller skating, while seniors can use it as a walking track. In the winter, small children can learn to skate, youth can have a game of pick-up hockey, families can enjoy a Sunday afternoon skate, and it provides seniors with enough exercise to keep them active. Thorne has a small population of approximately 450 residents, with the addition of weekend visitors this project aims to affect 600 people and would really be the boost the township needs.
Your vote is greatly appreciated.
