We ed the director of Recreation of Pitt Meadows and the answer for one of the questions were that a good location would be South Bonson, which is where the future recreation centre will be placed. This recreation centre will open in July 2011 and it will include a large hall, two activity rooms and a meeting room. We agree to this plan to place the new recreation centre by South Bonson because there is a lot of free space. Questions answered by: Kelly Swift; Director of Recreation
