About
The East Lambton Community Complex (ELCC) in Watford, formerly known as the Watford Arena, underwent an extensive upgrade and expansion project before re-opening in October 2021. This facility replaced the former Watford Centennial Hall, which had been a staple in the community for over 50 years. The ELCC now offers a variety of spaces for sports, recreation, and leisure activities throughout the year, making it a central gathering place for residents of Warwick Township.
Located at 61 Centennial Avenue, the East Lambton Community Complex features ample parking, including spaces for electric vehicles. This accessibility makes it an ideal destination for both locals and visitors to enjoy the amenities available at the complex. The Parks & Recreation Department of Warwick Township is excited to welcome guests to the ELCC and invites inquiries about facility rentals through their booking page.
One of the main highlights of the East Lambton Community Complex is the Arena/Optimist Ice Surface. Ice is available for use from September to March each year, while the concrete pad is open from March to September. The facility also offers a variety of amenities, including the Upper Arena Hall, the Lambton Mutual Community/Gymnasium Hall, outdoor kitchen facilities, and a Multi-Purpose Room for diverse activities and events.
In addition to these offerings, the East Lambton YMCA is located on-site, providing further opportunities for fitness and recreation. Visitors can enjoy a range of services and programs at the YMCA, which is operated in collaboration with the YMCA of Southwestern Ontario. Contact information for the East Lambton YMCA, as well as the Parks, Recreation, and Facilities Manager for the ELCC, is available for those seeking more information or wishing to get involved in the community.
Overall, the East Lambton Community Complex serves as a vibrant hub of activity in Watford, bringing together residents and visitors from all walks of life to engage in sports, recreation, and social events. With its modern facilities and convenient location, the ELCC is a valuable asset to the community and a focal point for community engagement and connection.
