Sep 25, 2009 – City of Kimberley gives go ahead for Conference Centre
It’s been a long time coming… finally the City of Kimberley has announced the go ahead for the construction of the 500 person capacity Conference Centre and Paralympic Training Centre in Kimberley Alpine Resort, just a few hundred metres from Mountain Spirit Resort and Spa.
This is superb news for Kimberley as a whole. Conferences will tend to be held during the quieter parts of the year (the shoulder season) and the associated business travelers typically spend two to three times what an average tourist spends. Owners at Mountain Spirit who opt to join the rental program will also be pleased. Mountain Spirit was designed to include studios and one bedroom suites in addition to two and three bedroom suites, with the future business travelers, who travel alone, in mind.
The construction is anticipating to start soon by New Dawn Developments, the same construction company who constructed Mountain Spirit Resort and Spa, and many other resort properties in Panorama and Fernie Alpine Resort in their porfolio. New Dawn is recognised for the high quality workmanship and in their preference for local trades and staff.
