Public information session for the Athol South Marysburgh School Community Access Project
June 17, 2024 @ 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm
The public is invited to Athol South Marysburgh School (1764 County Road 10, Cherry Valley) on Monday, June 17 between 4 pm and 6 pm to learn about the Athol South Marysburgh School (ASMS) Community Access Project. This partnership between the municipality and the school aims to encourage public access to the school yard when school is not in session.
ASMS is a hidden gem in Athol Ward, with plenty of land and recreational amenities that can be enjoyed by the community after school, on weekends and in the summer. The school council has been fundraising to revitalize the school yard and improve the playground amenities. The municipality has been welcomed as a partner in this project, using funds from the Parkland Reserve to help fund school yard improvements and ensure that the yard is welcoming and open to the community when school is not in session. The municipal contribution to this project will be $14,000.
