The Athabasca Regional Multiplex is the town’s flagship recreation facility, built to hold an aquatic centre, an ice arena, a curling rink, a fieldhouse, and a fitness centre under one roof. The aquatic side includes a lap pool, a zero entry pool, a lazy river, and a hot tub, while the arena side hosts local hockey and figure skating alongside curling leagues. Meeting rooms and open floor space also make the Multiplex a regular venue for conferences, trade shows, and community celebrations.
MCSnet sponsors the internet connection across the facility, which sees a steady flow of families, teams, and event organizers through the week. A parent watching a swim lesson, a visiting hockey team checking a schedule, or a trade show vendor running card payments can all rely on the same free connection. The Multiplex is one of three MCSnet sponsored hotspots on the public list for the town of Athabasca.

A facility this large draws people for hours at a time, whether they are in the stands during a tournament or waiting through back-to-back swim lessons, and steel-framed arenas and pool areas are notoriously hard on cell signal. A dependable Wi-Fi connection keeps everyone reachable while they wait.
