That's pretty awesome, the Special Olympians are all absolute badasses, they work so hard, and it's nice to see them have a place to train and work together.

This facility annoys me. Moved from Toronto where there were dozens of free walking tracks to use in the winter.

Abilities centre wants $25/month. Why? I'm paying $9000 in property tax and they're going to nickel and dime me over using a walking track that will cost them nothing for me to use? I'm assuming this is why Whitby intentionally poorly maintains there outdoor walking tracks like the one in Brooklin that is flooded half the time?
