On January 1, 2025, the Town of Conception Bay South assumed ownership of the Manuels River Centre. To ensure that the centre continues to serve as a vibrant and valuable asset to our community, we are launching a public consultation process to gather your input on its future direction. Currently closed for essential maintenance and preparatory work, the centre has long been a hub for educational programs, a popular rental space for events, and home to a museum showcasing local fossils and exhibits about the Manuels River. As we reimagine the Community Centre’s future for the residents of Conception Bay South, your feedback is crucial.
To learn more, read the Manuels River Community Centre Information Sheet.
There are three ways to share your thoughts and ideas:
