The Bill Woycik Outstanding Facility Award has been given to PG for the improvements made to Masich Place.
New features of the stadium include:
- Interior lights being swapped out for LEDs with motion sensors
- LEDs for the scoreboard as well as the field lighting
- Universal washrooms and larger change room capacity
- Better wheelchair accessibility
The award is handed out by the Recreational Facilities Association of British Columbia to facilities that feature changes such as energy management, innovation to design, or revenue generation.
Masich Place’s reno was a $7.5 million project that used grant funding from the UCBM Federal Gas Tax Strategic Priorities Fund ($3.2 million), NDIT grant ($250,000), and the federal Enabling Accessibility Fund ($141,455).
The award itself was named after City of Prince George employee Bill Woycik.
