Safety is a priority for Northern Edge Sport Association, and the trees have become a safety issue. The trees have been removed, and NESA will be offering a firewood fundraiser to help recover the cost of the tree removal. Please note that NESA is covering the cost of these upgrades through fundraising and grant writing. If you are interested in purchasing wood or making a donation, please contact Lara Collingwood. Thank you 😊

Did you know…? 🦖
The “dinosaur” HVAC system in the NESA facility actually began its life at Chandler Park Middle School before being moved to our building in 2005. While its exact age is a bit of a mystery, one thing is certain - it’s no longer meeting modern efficiency, air-quality, or programming needs.

Good news… we’re listening!

As part of the NESA Expansion Project (Phase 2), the entire HVAC system will be replaced with a modern, energy-efficient system in 2026, improving comfort, air quality, and sustainability for everyone who uses the facility.

🎉 Big news! 🎉
We’re thrilled to announce that PHASE TWO of the NESA Expansion Project is FULLY FUNDED and scheduled for completion in 2026!

This phase will significantly enhance our facility by:
✨ Adding 900 sq. ft. of new multipurpose programming space through second-level renovations
🔥 Upgrading fire code safety with four new exits and an external staircase.
♿ Installing an accessible lift to better serve seniors and participants with diverse needs
🌬️ Replacing the entire HVAC system to improve air quality and energy efficiency throughout the building

Thank you to our community supporters and grant partners for helping us take this exciting step forward! 💙
