The plans for a 20 million dollar multi-purpose recreation centre at Exhibition Park call for an indoor 3 lane walking track that would not be used by runners or joggers.

Planning consultant Wendy Donovan tells CHSJ News it's too important to be lost in the shuffle if the cost is thought to be too high. Donovan says alot of people tend to get housebound in the winter and have no place to get any exercise.

There is also talk of having an artificial outdoor field down the road to go along with the indoor field.

Common Councillor Bruce Court is expressing some doubt whether the money will be there.
