SportLink – Greater Sudbury Sport Council will be hosting its Annual General Meeting (AGM) on the evening of Monday, May 29th, beginning at 7:00 p.m., in the first floor boardroom of Minnow Lake Place (across from gymnasium).

Actively involved with the several of the recent Sudbury Sport Tourism ventures (most notably the Nickel City Curling Championships, the local group will continue to push forward the importance of these initiatives on a local level, working hand in hand with municipal officials.

SportLink has also been busy with the partnership that is Active Sudbury, working alongside representatives of Public Health Sudbury & Districts, Laurentian University, Cambrian College, Collège Boréal and the City of Greater Sudbury, as well as with Indigenous Sport & Wellness Ontario on a small handful of local projects.

Finally, the SportLink mandate of providing support in the areas of promotion and marketing, accessing government funding, volunteer attraction and promotion, and various other endeavours, is sure to rank the next few years as among the most active in the history of the council.

With that in mind, we are hoping to attract another four to five new board members to join SportLink in moving forward our mandate, and sport, in general, locally. Meetings are held on a monthly basis, with a relatively limited demand on the time of the volunteers between meetings.

What we need are energetic, positive and creative individuals, ideally who have been involved in amateur sports in various capacities over the years, and are interested in seeing Sudbury thrive in the years to come.
