Larry McNabb Sports Zone

Larry McNabb Sports Zone Dedication

Nanaimo residents are invited to attend the dedication of the 'Larry McNabb Sport Zone' this Saturday, May 28 from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm at the Nanaimo Ice Centre at 750 Third Street. The event will celebrate Councillor McNabb's vision of the importance sports plays in the lives of young people. He was a tireless advocate who worked hard to create Nanaimo's sports zone.

The zone includes Nanaimo Ice Centre, the Nanaimo Aquatic Centre, Serauxman Stadium and Fields and the Rotary Field House.

Eleven statues have been installed along Third Street between Nanaimo Ice Centre and Serauxman Fields. They are all sports themed and were created by artists Victoria Drakeford and Ruben Galdames. The event will include the unveiling of a commemorative figure of Councilor McNabb with a few brief speeches starting at 11:20 am with refreshments following.
