The facility will feature the only Olympic-sized ice rink in the province, a walking track around the rink and a fitness centre. The building will also host Mount Academy, which is a private school based out of P.E.I.
Willie MacGuigan, general manager of the Eliyahu Wellness Centre, says the dehumidifier needed to make the ice for the facility has arrived, and should be ready for ice making by Dec.12. - Cody McEachernNORTH RUSTICO, P.E.I. — Despite delays in getting necessary ice-making equipment, the new rink and wellness centre in North Rustico is slated to be open well in advance of the 2023 Canada Winter Games.
“It’s about a two-week installation, so as long as we have the ice area cleaned, right now I’m looking at starting to make ice by Dec. 12,” he said. “The building will also host Mount Academy, which is a private school based out of P.E.I. They will be housing their grade 9-12 students out there,” he said.
“For a small community to have a building like that in the area, it definitely does open up new opportunities within the town for sure,” he said. The Eliyahu Wellness Centre Canada Games Place, which has been under construction since late 2020, will feature an Olympic-sized ice surface, a walking track, a fitness room and will be home to P.E.I. sports school Mount Academy. - Cody McEachern
