The recently revamped Aurora
Family Leisure Complex (AFLC) got
the Federal seal of approval Monday
afternoon hosting Bal Gosal, Minister
of State for Sport, on his tour of Aurora.
Accompanied by Newmarket-Aurora
MP Lois Brown, he was greeted at
the AFLC by Mayor Geoff Dawe and
municipal staff, before embarking
on a brief tour. They then visited the
Aurora Sports Hall of Fame at Aurora
Town Hall before heading downstairs
for a community roundtable discussion
on local sports and building healthier
communities.
On their tour of the AFLC, Mayor
Dawe said the expansion, which
was officially opened at the end of
last month, is just one of the many
initiatives that has Aurorans buzzing
about sports and recreation in this,
Aurora’s Year of Sport.
“There is little doubt the best way
to keep our families healthy and make
positive changes is to start with our
youth,” said Mayor Dawe, highlighting
not just the complex, but also the
developing Parks and Recreation
Master Plan, trails expansions, and
new accessible playground equipment
for the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Park.
“Adopting healthy lifestyles early paves
the way for a lifetime of healthy choices.
“The Year of Sport provides the
perfect opportunity to get our residents
involved, engaged and active in a
variety of local sports and athletics,
and a lifetime of good, healthy habits.”
This was a sentiment echoed by Ms.
Brown.
“I know so many of you who have
been actively engaged in the promotion
of this,” she said of the Year of Sport.
“It is going to be an exciting year. I
think as we move towards wellness
rather than illness, we will see greater
enthusiasm in our constituency, greater
enthusiasm and wellness in the people
around us and greater benefits to our
Town as a whole.”

renovation warehouses in the Region,
along with 24,000 products, an outdoor
garden centre, and a large number of
brand products.
“The opening of this new RenoDepot in Aurora represents a major
milestone in the expansion of our

half of 2014 in the revamping of our

proud to be moving on to the next step,
opening new outlets and exploring
new markets where we feel confident
the Reno-Depot concept will be wellreceived.”
In addition to offering everyday

“Our store manager, Matthew
Picconi, has built a strong team
