Activity Centre in Mission
The Activity Centre in Mission is more that a building. It's a social hub for community, bringing people together to learn, move, grow, and celebrate. The all-ages Activity Centre in Mission will feature 91 childcare spaces with support through the provincial ChildCareBC New Spaces Fund, with the potential for spaces in Rutland as well.
