Pitt Meadows has similarly suspended all group fitness, registered sports programs and facility bookings until Nov. 23.

“The rapidly increasing numbers of COVID-19 cases are very concerning,” says Mayor Bill Dingwall. “We need everyone to do their part and to follow all health orders which will help to slow the spread of the virus. We are in this together.”
