Last fall I was asked to take the photo that would be used in the campaign to win the Aviva Community Fund to refurbish the pool at the Gallipeau Centre (the former Rideau Regional Centre). You might remember this…
That’s me on top of a ladder to get the high angle I needed to get the shot. 
Once votes were counted, turns out the Smiths Falls “Fill Our Pool” project was selected as the winner in it’s category.
Monday April 8 everyone once again gathered at the pool where Aviva representatives presented the cheque for $99,000 to members of The Hub, who spearheaded the project along with WJ Wood Insurance.
In case you couldn’t make it, I put together a short video of what went on. Don’t forget to share this with your friends and families using the buttons below.
This is a terrific boost for Smiths Falls and area. Thanks everyone for voting for “Fill Our Pool” and to the Hub, the Gallipeau family, Aviva and WJ Wood Brokers for bringing back the pool.
We’d love to hear how you and your family plan to use the new pool. Tell us in the comments section below. You can share this with your family and friends using the buttons below too.
