Another donation for the Regional Recreation Centre in Owen Sound.
The Kazarian Family is donating 25 thousand dollars to the Centre’s fundraising efforts in the name of the late Harry Kazarian Senior, a Canadian lacrosse hall of famer.
Daughter Maria Jones says the family is excited about the donation in memory of their Dad.
The Kazarian family name is prominent among sports in the Owen Sound area — playing in lacrosse, hockey, ringette and swimming.
The Harry Kazarian Memorial Father’s Day lacrosse tournament just celebrated its 22nd year in June.
The committee has now raised close to 70 per cent of its five million dollar goal.
The Regional Rec Centre includes two arenas, a competition sized pool, a therapeutic pool, fitness centre and running track.
The facility is on schedule to open in spring 2012.
