We’reexploring what a modern, accessible recreation campus in Assiniboine South could look like.
The Assiniboine South area is growing, and so is the need for modern recreation facilities. We know many of the existing programs and facilities in the area are well-loved by the community. We also know we need to make some investments, so they continue to meet the needs of the community for years to come.
We are proposing the Assiniboine South Recreation Campus to be located at Varsity View Sportsplex and Marj Edey Park (911 Fairmont Rd.). This would bring activities together in one place for people of all ages to enjoy.
Right now, we are studying whether a regional recreation campus is the right solution for the area. As part of this project, we are looking at:
Community needs
Possible designs
Costs
Proposed location

We are starting to plan for the proposed Assiniboine South Recreation Campus.
How existing recreation spaces are being used in the area
Opportunities for existing community amenities to better meet community needs
In the next phases of the project, we will be:
Developing early ideas for the proposed regional recreation campus in Marj Edey Park, including its design and amenities
Gathering feedback from users and the broader community
Developing a high level cost to design and construct the facility
This summer, we are reaching out to stakeholder organizations (including volunteers, seniors groups, recreation and athletic groups, and others) We want to hearhow they currently use Varsity View Sportsplex, Marj Edey Park, and other nearby recreation sites.
Inearly 2027, we will ask the public for feedback that will help shape the campus design and amenities.
By mid-2027, we will have a recommended design and cost estimate. We would require additional funding and Council approval before moving forward with a final design and construction.
