Goderich Self Storage of Ontario Donates $25K for Sport Park

Article-Goderich Self Storage of Ontario Donates $25K for Sport Park

Tim Stinson, owner of Goderich Self Storage in Goderich, Ontario, Canada, has donated $25,000 to a fundraising campaign for Goderich Recreation Park, a multi-sport community park slated to open in spring 2019. The new venue will include baseball and soccer fields, a skate park, playground, and a pavilion.

The $3.6 million project is being financed by the town via reserved funds allocated for recreation, grants and budget allocations of $200,000 per year over a 12-year amortization, according to the town’s website. In addition, the Goderich Recreation Park Revitalization Committee was tasked by the town council to raise $1.1 million. To date, it has raised $1 million, according to its Facebook page.

Goderich Self Storage annually sponsors local youth who play baseball and hockey. In addition, Stinson volunteers as a coach for youth sports teams.

“Goderich Self Storage continues to be a great supporter of youth sports and recreation in our community,” said Trevor Bazinet, a town councilor and member of the revitalization committee. “With the support of businesses like Goderich Self Storage, a sports park of this magnitude will be one of the best things to happen in Goderich in a long time. These are exciting times for the town of Goderich.”

Donating to the cause was a “natural fit” for the storage business, Stinson said. “We believe youth sports are incredibly important to the vibrancy and sustainability of our community. We want to see our kids and our teams succeed.”

Locally owned and operated, Goderich Self Storage serves the communities in Huron County. The facility recently added a new building featuring climate-controlled storage to its property, according to its website.
