Grand Bend Community Improvement Coalition Survey 1 |
Introduction
Greater Grand Bend and Area residents, we want to hear from you! Share with us how you would use or would like to use a Community Center in questions below. Leave all the feedback you'd like; we value your feedback! We want to understand how a Grand Bend Community Center could become be your number one neighborhood destination for community activities.
The community improvement coalition is made up of volunteer members from the Grand Bend community”. Since August, 2013 the members have held regular meetings to research and assess how to improve the community’s local access to high quality activities. The outcome of this coalition is to
produce a feasibility study and business plan regarding Grand Bend’s readiness and ability to plan, build and operate a multi-purpose, multi-generational, multi-tenant community complex.
Through the course of several interviews with neighbouring community centres, discussions with professionals and residents we have identified some key features that the SunPlex should consider.
