After this weekend’s Ontario Winter Games hockey medals are handed out Sunday, the ice and stands will be all that’s left after the wreckers come in to tear half the building out.

The much-anticipated construction of the new pool means the dressing rooms and the Terry Fox Hall will make way for an $18-million project announced last year by the provincial, federal and municipal governments, who will share the cost equally.

In a year’s time a new pool, two-storey change room and community hall will be connected by new office space and an additional gym run by the town and YMCA.
