City of Burnaby marks grand reopening of Jack Crosby Sports Box at Riverway

The City of Burnaby celebrated the grand reopening of the upgraded Jack Crosby Sports Box at Riverway on May 3 with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and photo opportunity with key community figures. 

"These upgrades to the Jack Crosby Sports Box transformed this facility into a year-round hub, making it easier for people of all ages to be active participate in sports,” said Mayor Mike Hurley. “This sports box is not only a space for athletic excellence but also a place for families and friends to come together and create lasting memories."
