TRTFN Child and Family Multi-Use Community Space

This project provides a multi-use space for TRTFN citizens, with a focus on the Nation's children, youth and families, as well as connections to other First Nations and their families with focus on traditional cultural activities, including:
- Summer: basketball, ball hockey
- Winter: hockey, skating, broomball
- Other related recreations and child and family service activities
- Potlatches and community gatherings up to 150 people with parking spaces

The project will be sited on 1340 sq.m in the Five Mile Point 3 Reserve, Atlin, BC. This includes a timber and steel structure to cover the multi-use surface and include amenities such as seating (~80 spectators), changerooms, washrooms, and storage. The main structure is not enclosed and will not be conditioned (heated or cooled). The rink will rely on natural ice in the winter; a refrigeration system for artificial ice is not contemplated in the future. The site will include parking for approx. 40 vehicles. The site has not been previously developed and will require lot development activities, include clearing of timber and other vegetation.
