CUplex facilities closed for majority of long weekend
Families looking for something to do together this Easter long weekend might have to rule out a visit to North Battleford’s CUplex as both the Field House and Aquatic Centre will be closed for most of the weekend.
Both facilities will be closed Friday, Sunday and Monday. The Field House will be open from 2:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Saturday, while the Aquatic centre will be open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. the same day.
Other communities, like Yorkton and Melfort’s, aquatic centres will remain open all weekend. According to management at Northern Lights Palace in Melfort, the facility sees a lot more traffic during stat holidays.
According to the director of leisure services for North Battleford, a recent study showed there was room to make up for budget shortfalls by staying closed during stat holidays.
