.................................. The City of Lloydminster has opened the doors to the new Cenovus Energy Hub to select user groups. The Cenovus Energy Hub, which is slated for a grand opening on Oct. 1, is nearing the end of construction and will soon be in full operation. Teams from Lloydminster Minor Hockey Association, Lloydminster Athletics, Lakeland College, the Lloydminster Skating Club and the Lloydminster Bobcats were welcomed into the new arena on Sept. 6. “While the official celebration is yet to come, we are thrilled to open the doors of Cenovus Energy Hub and begin welcoming teams into this
long-anticipated space,” said Tracy Simpson, the city’s executive manager of community development services. “This soft launch gives user groups early access to familiarize themselves with the building while we prepare to welcome the entire community to see and explore the building during the grand opening in October.” Light finishing work will continue throughout September. Work will include final installations such as portions of hand railings, signage and select seat sections. Concession amenities are set to open at a later date. During the transition to the new arena, bookings at the Centennial Civic Centre will continue for the junior A Bobcats, junior B Bandits and other users as needed.
