For Immediate Release July 18, 2025
The recent Kabaddi event that was held at Heritage Park School site grew beyond the expectations of organizers or the capacity of our facility to host it. As a result, a decision was made that future events of a similar nature would need to be hosted at a larger, more appropriate site.
The school district, as per the Joint Use Agreement the school district has with the City, allows school district facilities to be used for community events. As the school district’s primary responsibility is for providing educational facilities for students, community use must not compromise the site or cause financial or operational burden on the school district.
On a number of occasions, we have had to close facilities to community use, due to incompatible use or to ensure facilities can be utilized by students as intended. In some instances, a whole facility has been closed to user groups for an extended period to allow things like annual turf repair, floor waxing or replacement, and so on.
