History
Bord-Aire has been serving the community in one form or another for over 100 years. It was founded when Border Community Club (est. 1916) and Airways Community Centre (est. 1951) amalgamated in 1975.
The executive board pitched many names including Paramor, Brittania, and Border-Airways before settling on Bord-Air. The mysterious E was added to give the name balance: four letters on each side.
After the merger, volunteers worked hard to organize an expansion that was completed in 1979. A grand opening was attended by Mayor Bill Norrie and MP Bob Lane.
Ever since, dedicated community members have served as volunteers and board members to bring the neighborhood together.
