History
Thanksgiving weekend of 1965, Nepean Township made history. Township officials opened the first two centennial projects in Canada; the Merivale and Bell Centennial Arenas. The first declared open was Merivale adjacent of Merivale High School on Merivale road, and in a ceremony held 30 minutes away, the Bell Centennial Arena was then officially opened. Both projects had a combined cost in excess of $584,000.
