Mark your calendars, parents: Elkford is receiving an exciting new facility, the Elkford Childcare Centre and Community Hub, which will bring much-needed licensed child care services and shared community spaces to town in late 2022.

Funded entirely by grants, the new child care facility will be opening within the former District of Elkford municipal office building on Michel Road.
The building is set to undergo extensive renovations before being repurposed into a child care facility, with the Elkford Women’s Task Force Society as the operator. The district has also applied for a grant through the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program, which will allow the development of additional, flexible spaces to support small businesses, non-profits and arts and culture in Elkford. Results of this grant are anticipated in summer 2021.
