The South Wing is Added, 1955

When the south wing was opened in 1955, the gymnasium drew most of the attention. A state-of-the-art facility, it was the largest in Canada. Today it is sometimes used by movie-makers. During the summer of 1997 the Hollywood film featuring Dennis Rodman was filmed here.

Below the gym was a new rifle range.

The photos below show the gymnasium being constructed.

The new gym begins to take shape.
