A local gymnastics club says it is going to be left out of the City of North Vancouver’s new recreation centre.
City council has approved plans to replace the Harry Jerome Community Recreation Centre with a new $237-million facility.
But Flicka Gymnastics, which has been based out of the Harry Jerome centre for the past 18 years, was told the new gym won’t have space for them.
Flicka Gymnastics has been offered space at the Mickey McDougall Community Recreation Centre, but the club says it is too small for their 2,000 young gymnasts.
With only weeks until the next municipal election, the club is hoping to persuade city council to accommodate them in the new centre.
