Many soccer players will now enjoy the use of a new family friendly field house/washroom facility at the Center for Community Services Soccer Fields on Grand Avenue and Lark Street.

This new facility was a partnership between the Municipality of Chatham-Kent, Health & Family Services, Chatham Youth Soccer Association and Community Living Chatham Kent.

The need for a new washroom building was identified to Chatham-Kent council in 2016 and funding in the amount of $466,427 was approved in 2016 and 2017.

The soccer fields at the Centre for Community Services location sees on average over 1,200 users each week, so the new facility will be a welcome addition for all.

The building consists of washrooms, storage room, canteen and shelter area, and will be open for use during soccer and other community events throughout the summer months.

The project also provides job learning skills through the canteen which is operated by Community Living Chatham-Kent.

The family washroom will be open for the public use daily from May until September seasonally and the main washrooms will be available during the evening hours.
