KRSC to host Kahnawake Recreation Summit

06/14/2024

The Kahnawake Recreation Steering Committee (KRSC) is cordially inviting the community to attend a Recreation Summit on Thursday, June 27, 2024, at the Knights of Columbus Hall.

Between 5pm to 9pm, the event will be open to individuals to provide feedback on their own aspirations in the areas of sports, recreation, and leisure.

Feedback received from the Summit will be used to develop the 10-year Recreation Master Plan, and to develop the feasibility study on a new or renovated Kahnawà:ke Youth Center (KYC) Facility.

“It’s really important for the community to become involved at these very early planning stages,” said KRSC co-chair and Director of Sports and Recreation, Roiahtate Horn. “Because this is the very first time we are collecting this type of feedback, and the completed plan will span the next ten years, all of your ideas are really invaluable to us.”

“At this point, the sky is the limit. We are going into this Summit with no set outcomes in mind, just a real and honest objective of finding out what the community wants,” added Kyle Zacharie, KYC Executive Director and KRSC co-chair. “We are hoping to have representation from as many age groups as possible, from youth to elder, to ensure that their needs are being met, no matter the individual.”

Attendees of the Summit will receive small tokens of appreciation, food and drinks, and be entered into a raffle.
