**SERVICE UPDATE** While work on the Archie Dillon Sportsplex Pool continues, access to the accessible ramp is being maintained by City staff when there are ice rentals at the arena. A staff member will be at the front door of the pool to provide access to the accessible ramp. The front door will be locked, but our staff member will be inside ready to open the door. This will remain in effect for the month of November until the pool re-opens in December. Thank you for your continued patience.

Our Goals
The Facilities and Recreation Department strives to ensure our recreational opportunities are accessible to all residents and visitors in order to contribute to a healthy community and improved quality of life. Our goals are:
- To promote the value of recreation and a healthy lifestyle to the community.
- To actively eliminate barriers to participation in recreation activities. Barriers can be related to physical access, income, geography and awareness.
- To act as an advocate for community groups and residents restricted from participating in recreation services and assist them, where possible, in their efforts to participate in a full range of opportunities.
- To promote partnerships with other public and private agencies to maximize the personal, social, economic and environmental benefits of recreation and leisure.
- To establish an acceptable community standard of service for the provision of parks and open space, facilities and programs and maintain the recreation system to that standard in a cost efficient manner.
- To develop and protect our parks and open spaces while promoting environmental stewardship, protection and conservation.
- To assess the needs of the recreation consumer and continually monitor and evaluate services.
- To work with the community to facilitate the development of creation programs and activities and provide the community with opportunities to be involved in the ongoing direction and development of recreation services in Timmins.
- To maximize opportunities for economic growth and tourism development.
