Stilt walkers were official greeters at the opening of the new Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre in Whalley on Saturday. The Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre was initially built as a Games Preparation Centre as an official venue to the 2010 Winter Olympic Games. Following the Games, the building has been adapted and re-opened to the public as a 20,000 square foot recreational centre featuring a gymnasium (named after Joe Burns) a youth lounge, preschool area and multi-purpose space.
