NWP is bustling with energy this year—so much so that we had standing room only at the theatre for orientation! Let’s give a warm welcome to all the new students joining our community this week.

Our Aquatic Centre’s big rooftop HVAC unit is 22 years old and nearing its end of life. We’re planning to replace it and will start by getting an assessment to apply for a grant to cover part of the costs.

Council has agreed to loan the Fairview Golf Club $50,000 for new golf carts! They’ll be paying it back over the next five years. If you’re a golfer, now’s a great time to book a round and check out the new carts before winter arrives!
