We had hoped to be well into phase 2 of our operations by this time, but unfortunately, 2020 struck again with an issue with our water system, putting us on our backup water supply contingency plan.
Unfortunately, this contingency plan will not support more than our current use with our Before & After School & Preschool programs. We have been working with HRM, the building owners, to remedy the issue, however, it has been a slow process to arrange parts etc.
Phase 2 will likely include private rentals and some limited programs, but we simply can't offer these until our water issues are fixed & we can ensure that things like washrooms & handwashing will be available to everyone in the facility.
As soon as the issue is remedied we will announce a date for phase 2 reopening & will include details about the programs & services that we are able to offer.
We really appreciate your patience as we work to ensure the building is ready to welcome back more of the Prospect Communities & we can't wait to see you all!

Operational update September 6th, 2020:
On Tuesday, September 8th, the ROC/PRCC will transition from summer operations to Before & After School Care for local students & families.
Due to the Covid-19 related childcare guidelines, specifically reducing group sizes to 15 children & the use of cohorts, we are not currently able to accept new registrations at this time. Please note, however, that this may change as guidelines ease.
We will remain closed to the public for the time being but we will begin to phase in services over the next few weeks & months beginning with our Preschool Program which we hope to open on September 21st, 2020. Details for the preschool registration will be released later this week.
The Prospect Communities Farmers Market will continue to operate via online platform with curbside pickups on Sunday.
We can’t wait to welcome the Prospect Communities back into the facility (we really miss our community!) however, we must do our part in containing the spread of COVID-19 & this means a slow & steady approach; we continue to evaluate our programs & services with our partners at HRM & public health & are busy planning the safest return possible & in accordance with the COVID related regulations & requirements.
Please note that as fitness Centre guidelines have not changed since they were originally announced we are still unable to open the fitness Centre as we still are unable to meet the guidelines. We hope this changes soon & we will extend memberships for the full duration of the closure.
We know this is & has been a difficult time; we are doing our best to bring services & programs back as soon as possible & we appreciate your patience as we move through this challenging process.
