For Immediate Release COMMUNITY CELEBRATES RE-OPENING OF FROST
CENTRE (Minden, ON) Laurie Scott, MPP for Haliburton-Victoria-Brock, today was pleased to join the celebration for the long-awaited re-opening and re-commissioning of the Frost Centre by the Frost Centre Institute.
“It is a thrill to be here today to see the Frost Centre Institute re-open and carry on the long tradition of outdoor and environmental learning in our community,” said Scott. “There have been so many local groups and committed individuals who have worked tirelessly to see this day happen.”
“Our combined efforts have made the government realize how important the Frost Centre is to this community and the thousands of people who visited it every year before it was closed in July of 2004. Thanks to their commitment, that tradition is now alive and well once again.”
“The community made a very strong appeal to see that the Frost Centre was re-invigorated,” said Alain Aubry, General Manager of the Frost Centre Institute. “As a result of those efforts, we now have a world-class environmental and outdoor education facility right in our own backyard,”
The Frost Centre Institute has established a number of outdoor programs for students and young people including environmental science seminars for Ontario schools, as well as a summer camp that includes a visual arts program, water sports program and environmental science program.
The revitalized centre also includes conference and accommodation facilities, along with audio-visual and office support for guests.
Scott added, “I’m proud to see our community’s dedication to carry on the Frost Centre’s tradition of environmental and outdoor education.”
