Did you know that RecEx came to be in 1999 when Tom Watson was the General Manager and Kathy Watson was a Lifeguard and sought-after Water Safety Instructor at the Surrey Sport and Leisure Centre? At that time, they formed a company called Rec Pro which in a year’s time morphed into Recreation Excellence, a company they have owned and grown together since.

Today, Recreation Excellence manages and operates multiple facilities in Western Canada. With 300+ staff, the company serves hundreds of thousands of visitors annually. The success of the company is based on the roots of why it was formed: to serve people in caring ways so that they, too, can enjoy breakthroughs and life-enhancing moments as they live their lives.

We’re so proud to be here with you today!
