History of the ALC-by Jane Malcolmson 

Discussion about the proposed building of a new Active Living Centre in Carman began in the mid 1990’s. Once a 

location was determined, fundraising was initiated. There were Gala dinners, golf tournaments, multiple donations from businesses, big band dances, cash 

calendars, many funds from supporters. In November 2004 the sod was turned for the new building (as seen in the picture below) Audrey Funke, Murray Rinn & Jim McCutcheon are turning the sod. 

Then on September 234, 2005, the Carman Active Living Centre had its Grand Opening. 

Pictured below is the original Building Committee at the celebration getting ready to cut the ribbon.
