Overview
The Peninsula Recreation Commission is a partnership of the municipalities of Sidney, North Saanich and Central Saanich, which are located just north of Victoria, B.C. on the Saanich Peninsula. The Commission serves the 36,000 residents in these municipalities as well as the 2,400 residents of the Pauquachin, Tsawout, Tseycum and Tsartlip First Nations. Funding for the Commission's operations comes from user fees and requisitions from the three municipalities.
The Commission's main facility and service location is the Capital Regional District's Panorama Recreation Centre. The land for the Centre was acquired by the District of North Saanich as part of the Park Pacific Dean Park Estates development.
Commission Activities
The Commission is comprised of elected and appointed representation from Central Saanich, North Saanich and Sidney. It is the Commission's objective to provide recreation and leisure activities and facilities to the citizens of the participating municipalities regardless of age, gender, religion or economic status.
