Mount Martin Ski Club just wrapped up a fantastic season. This small but mighty club provides a wonderful winter recreational resource for skiers and snowboarders across the upper Ottawa Valley.
Canadian National Energy Alliance (CNEA) was able to support MMSC through funds directed by CNL staff.

Yesterday's post was a throwback to the past, and today's post looks at the present.
Building 457 has been replaced by our "Minwamon Building" which greets visitors as they arrive on site. It also serves as a central stores warehouse, reducing the heavy truck traffic to the main campus.
Building 412 Manufacturing has been replaced by a beautiful, safe and modern Support Facility, centralizing many of our skilled trades and infrastructure support teams.
With these two projects completed last year, Facilities Decommissioning can take down the old buildings (457, 412) and start to make space for our new campus quad. ... See MoreSee Less

In response to an earlier question, CNL self-performed this demolition. Over the past few years our Facilities Decommissioning team has been growing (in number and in capability) and now self-performs a lot of these projects from start to finish.
Loved being on duty as a guard and having to attend 457 always had a great bunch of people working there and still do.
#TBT - One of the oldest buildings on site is currently being demolished by our Facilities Decommissioning team. Building 412, built in 1944, formerly housed a Machine Shop, a Quality Assurance Branch, a Welding Shop, a Tool Crib, and an office area. Also coming down is the attached Building 457, which was built in 1951. This building was the former Central Stores Facility with a shipping and receiving area, offices and a Site Maintenance Shop.
While new, state-of-the-art facilities have replaced these buildings, the memories and hard work that happened within those walls will never be forgotten. #Demolition pictures to come tomorrow. ... See MoreSee Less

Building 457 where my dad as Superintendent of Stores managed the Central Stores. He also played a major role in the design of the Stores at Whiteshell. Ken
I spent 22 yrs in that building; of my 35 yrs
Is this Calk River
Lots of memories inside those walls! Bitter sweet to see it coming down. I should do a tour there, I haven't been on site for 7 years since I retired. I bet a LOT has changed.
My home for 14 years.
interesting how that building had the same name as the trades building at Whiteshell
That's the building I started in as a clerk.
