Parry Sound Mayor Jamie McGarvey to sit on pool advisory committee

Parry Sound Town Council is moving ahead, appointing its representative to the pool advisory committee.

At its meeting Tuesday night, council passed a resolution that put Mayor Jamie McGarvey directly on the Ad Hoc Wellness and Pool Recreation Committee.

Council first defeated a motion that would have put a question on the 2018 municipal ballot asking voters their opinion on having a member of council sit on the committee.

The Ad-hoc Wellness and Recreational Committee hopes to determine the feasibility of having a swimming pool in Parry Sound and has asked all seven area municipal councils to appoint a representative to its committee.

I was born and raised in the former Borough of East York (now part of Toronto), a friendly community with small-town roots. After attending Ryerson’s Electrical Technology program in Toronto, I became involved in the family’s retail electronics business, eventually taking it over. During that time, I became involved in a number of community groups including the East York Community Centre Liaison Committee, and sitting on the board of the Toronto Police 54 Division liaison committee, as well as chairing the Pape Village Business Improvement Area. In 2007, I decided to pursue a career in radio broadcasting, enrolling in Humber College’s radio broadcasting program. It was a wonderful opportunity and something I’ve wanted to do since high school. After working at a number of stations in both Ontario and Alberta, I am excited to work alongside with the great team at 103.3 Moose FM in beautiful Parry Sound.
