The Leisure Services Coordinator at the Carleton Community Centre says this funding is greatly helping the centre and the community.
Chuck Edison says this announcement adds on to previous ones aimed at improving the community centre.
Edison says the hardwood in the gymnasium was originally laid in 1975, and it's taken a beating over the years by the amount of ball hockey and basketball played on it daily.
Edison says there are more projects slated for the Carleton Community Centre, including renovating the bathrooms, and improving the structures outside the building.
