WSPRS Board of Directors
As a multi-municipally-owned organization, much of the support for WSPR programs and facilities comes from the West Shore Parks & Recreation Society Board of Directors. Each of our 5 board members was elected to municipal council in October 2022, and each of them has proven to be an enthusiastic supporter of WSPR.
We are pleased to introduce the new members of the board - feel free to reach out by email, and say hi next time you see these folks - you may even see them around the rec centre, parks or arenas!
