New centre creating opportunities for tri-community area
Residents of La Ronge and the Tri-Community area will soon be able to putt their way to fun.
Construction is underway on a brand new miniature golf course at the Jonas Roberts Memorial Community Centre. According to the Lac La Ronge Indian Band director of sports and recreation Kevin Roberts, the construction could be wrapped up in a month.
“[The contractor] estimated a one month construction time, and they started last week,” Roberts said. “We’ll be lucky if we even get two weeks out of it [this year], but the point is that it will be there at least for next season.”
Depending on when the snow falls, Roberts said he hopes residents can get a bit of use and build some excitement about the mini golf course this year. He said he thinks residents will brave the cold to putt a few rounds before the seasons change.
