The best under 18 curlers hurried hard at the 2023 Under 18 Championships last week in Timmins. The event brought in 21 women’s teams and 21 men’s teams from across Canada to compete for the National Championship. It was a significant moment for the McIntyre Curling Club and an opportunity for Tourism Timmins to showcase all that our city has to offer.
How does an event like this impact the community?
Between Feb. 5 and 11, hotels in Timmins hit near sell out. Curling Canada estimates that 1000+ room nights are booked for U-18 Championship events by Curling Canada, not including fans and supporters. Rental agencies at Timmins Victor M. Power Airport reported approximately 100 vehicle rentals that week. 600+ guests visited the Timmins Museum: National Exhibition Centre and the museum’s gift shop tripled sales from the same time last year. 550 game tickets for the event were sold through the McIntyre Curling Club.
“The feedback from teams, visitors, and residents has been fantastic,” says Mayor Michelle Boileau. “The McIntyre Curling Club should be very proud in the efforts they put forward. It was a long week of exciting competition and it highlights how profitable large-scale sports tourism could be for our city and region.”
The event comes at a time when the City is working to update its Culture, Tourism, and Recreation Master Plan. Feedback is being collected through in-person engagement sessions, stakeholder meetings and an online public survey.
“The U-18’s were an example of how the City can work with local organizations to enhance recreation and tourism activities,” says Steph Palmateer, Director of Community Services and City Clerk. “We want to hear from residents, groups, and business owners on what we can do to further improve how the City supports events like the U-18 Championships. I also want to thank our maintenance and arena staff who worked to prepare the facility.”
To date, 885 responses to the public survey on culture, tourism and recreation have been collected. The survey can be filled out online before March 5, 2023 at: https://www.timmins.ca/our_services/recreation_services/c_t_r_master_plan_update_2023/take_the_s_u_r_v_e_y_now_.

Renovations to the Timmins Transit Terminal on Spruce St. began Monday. The project received the final go-ahead from City Council last month and will see the 1916 building updated to better serve the needs of Transit passengers and staff.
The City received $1.3 million in funding to help complete this project through the federal government’s Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP). The program is designed to help communities ensure that families and residents have access to modern and reliable services that impact their quality of life, including public transportation.
The majority of the work involves renovations to staff offices and replacement of the heating system. Public washrooms will have a new layout and minor changes will be made to the main lobby, including updates to the entrance vestibules to minimize heat loss. Any outdoor work to the roof and pathways will take place in the spring. Public washrooms will remain closed until renovations are complete.
“We’re excited to get this project started,” says Ken Krcel, Director of Public Works and Environmental Services. “The planned renovations will help Timmins Transit continue to deliver efficient services with improved public amenities. This is the first update to the Transit Terminal since it was purchased by the City of Timmins in 2010.”
The City is working with contractors to minimize impact to the public. There will be no disruption of Timmins Transit route services or schedule. Any change to services at the Transit Terminal, like bus pass purchase, will be communicated in advance through the City’s website at https://www.timmins.ca/our_services/timmins_transit.
