Swim or Gym Makes a Big Splash for Transit Users
By Nelson Daily Staff
Transit users do not, I repeat, do not toss out the January pass before reading this story.
The Regional District of Kootenay Boundary, Regional District of Central Kootenay, the City of Nelson and BC Transit are teaming up to help encourage active and healthy transportation and lifestyle choices with the ‘Swim or Gym’ program.
The ‘Swim or Gym’ program lets you use your expired monthly BC Transit pass, from any of the participating regions, as your one-time ticket to access free services at any number of fitness centres.
Present any expired 2016 BC Transit monthly bus pass at the Nelson & District Community Complex, the Castlegar and District Community Complex, Salmo and District Fitness Centre or the Trail Aquatic & Leisure Centre to receive one free admission.
Your pass will be hole-punched and returned to you for tax credit.
Monthly passes dated January 2016 and later will be accepted.
This new initiative will encourage continued healthy and active choices in our communities.
