YMCA Northumberland and the Municipality of Trent Hills are thrilled to announce the Grand Reveal Open House at the highly anticipated Sunny Life Recreation & Wellness Centre. With more than two decades of partnership and community effort, this landmark facility will hold an open house for the public on Friday, December 13, from 2:30 PM to 6:00 PM.

Beginning in December 2022, the Municipality of Trent Hills began the process of creating a new Official Plan. The Municipality of Trent Hills is pleased to release Discussion Papers prepared in support of the new Official Plan creation.

Using the findings and feedback received through background research, best practices review, and the Community Scan digital survey, Fotenn consultants have prepared a series of discussion papers outlining current conditions and policy options for the Municipality of Trent Hills.

Each discussion paper will outline the policy framework in the current Official Plan (as applicable), provincial and County policy direction, opportunities and challenges, and proposed policy approaches.

The following four (4) discussion papers have been produced and have been added to our website:

Strong Healthy Communities
Resources and Environment
Development Hazards and Constraints
Official Plan Implementation

A public engagement session for members of the community will be scheduled in the coming months, centred on the findings of the Discussion Papers in key policy areas, including background and recommendations. Attendees will be invited to ask questions and provide input on the land use planning issues facing their community. The Public Engagement Session will be advertised via our website and social media channels.

The Municipality of Trent Hills is pleased to announce the community sponsors of the new Sunny Life Recreation and Wellness Centre.

To date over $1.3 million has been raised through the generous support of these businesses.

Campbellford, ON (May 15, 2023) – The new Recreation and Wellness Centre has been officially named the Sunny Life Recreation and Wellness Centre. 

The rainy skies did not dampen the mood at today’s groundbreaking at the site of the new Recreation and Wellness Centre located on Seymour Quarry Road, Campbellford where construction has started.

The Municipality strives to provide quality facilities and services to its residents while being mindful of how it spends tax dollars.  Naming Rights agreements can provide alternative funding sources to benefit the quality of life for those who live here.
