MONTREAL \u2013 The Montreal Impact Foundation, in collaboration with the city of Laval, announced on Thursday the construction of a new multisport mini-field at parc du Moulin, in Saint-Fran\u00e7ois, Laval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It will be the fourth mini-field inaugurated by the Foundation after the ones built at parc Champdor\u00e9, in Saint-Michel (2018), parc Joe-Beef, in Pointe-Saint-Charles (2019) and parc Paul-Andr\u00e9 Potvin, in Shawinigan (2021).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe are always very proud to give back to the community through our mini-field facilities. They are safe and healthy gathering places for youth and families from underserved communities. With this initiative, our primary goal is to promote physical activity and healthy lifestyles. We are very grateful to the city of Laval for its invaluable collaboration, and I am confident that together we will continue improving access to youth sports as well as the quality of life in the Saint-Fran\u00e7ois district,\u201d said Montreal Impact Foundation President Carmie Frassetti Saputo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOur administration is committed to providing new sports infrastructure in Laval and we are delighted to count on the collaboration of partners like the Montreal Impact Foundation to reach that goal. This new multisport synthetic mini-field in Parc du Moulin, accessible to all citizens, adds to our actions aimed to create more sports and family spaces on the island, particularly in the Saint-Fran\u00e7ois sector. This is exactly the kind of initiative that facilitates access to sports and improves the quality of life in the neighborhoods\u201d, said Laval Mayor, St\u00e9phane Boyer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The field\u2019s construction began May 6, with its inauguration scheduled for mid-July 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
