Feds announce funding for renovations to Calgary’s WinSport day lodge
“It will become more accessible, more inclusive… It’ll have a better flow and it’ll also be built to a net-zero standard. So it’s a tremendous advancement in the functionality of this important community facility.”The planned enhancements to the day lodge’s accessibility will also benefit many families, children and disabled athletes, Heck said.
The proposed improvements aim to remove barriers so disabled people can easily access the parking lot, day lodge and recreation facilities. “It’ll make it a lot more user-friendly for disabled athletes to go right from the parking lot to snow. The stairs will come out and it’ll just be a world-leading, inclusive and accessible facility that allows a wider range of athletes to take part in the hills,” Heck said.WinSport is a community-based, non-profit organization that aims to help people discover the joy of physical activity and help athletes recognize their potential.
