A vibrant community hub for Peninsula’s 55+, SHOAL Centre is only 4 blocks off Beacon Avenue (across from the Sidney Library) at 10030 Resthaven Dr. in Sidney.

The modern, well-equipped centre combines community-based recreation and volunteer services with a seniors’ activity centre, a public dining room, and catering, rental and meeting services. An Assisted Living residential care home is on the upper floors.

Want a quiet place to read or visit with a friend over coffee or a bridge game? Want to stretch your brain with a new hobby or interesting lecture or class? Or your muscles, at a fast-paced exercise class (or with a gentler fitness option, such as yoga, chair exercise, or mild aerobics)?

Then visit SHOAL Centre!

We welcome everyone, but especially tailor our activities and services for older adults. Amenities include:

  • A woodworking shop
  • Lapidary and silversmith shops
  • Crafts and ceramics/pottery rooms
  • Auditoriums, meeting & exercise spaces
  • A games and card room
  • An exercise room
  • And much more!
