To this point in the construction of its new “EXolution” conference centre and agri-food hub, the Lethbridge & District Exhibition has used largely local trades providing a direct and immediate stimulus to the local economy. Exhibition Park Chief Operating Officer Mike Warkentin told city council’s Economic Standing Policy Committee on Wednesday that of the 3,920 worker hours put in on the site to date that over 70 per cent, or about 3,500 hours, had been filled by local trades. “This project certainly is a community project that has invested money back into the construction industry in Lethbridge,” Warkentin reported proudly to committee members.
