Energizing our Future

The Social and Economic Development Framework for Fort St. John.

Quality of life is essential for the community and our recreational facilities are second to none. The Pomeroy Sport Centre opened in 2010 and boasts an Olympic sized speed skating oval; indoor walking/running track; and two NHL sized hockey rinks. Made for participation, this facility sees over 60,000 visits each month in the winter season! Laughter and splashing can be heard daily at the indoor pool and wave pool complete with a water slide and toddler area. Over 25 km of trails weave their way throughout the city and along with our many parks and green spaces are host to many sport and health enthusiasts. New developments are required to connect their subdivisions to the trails to continue to expand on creating a safe and healthy community.
