Gazebo Construction Underway in Wapasu Conservancy Park

Construction of a gazebo is currently underway in Wapasu Conservancy Park. The replacement project is a result of a fire that destroyed a cookhouse earlier this summer. Norm De Wet, Director of Operations for the County of Minburn, provided information on the project.
De Wet stated, “With support from County Council, the project was awarded to Twin Ridge Construction for $46,102.21. The new structure is bigger than the old cook shack and will be a 20’ by 20’ fully metal-clad gazebo, which maximizes the space we have to work with and will be more practical for day-to-day use at the lake. In addition, we have replaced the damaged garbage cans with bear-proof cans, repaired the fence, and will have new picnic tables installed to match the existing design. We have received all required permits, and construction is now underway. We anticipate that the project will be completed by the end of September. The new gazebo will provide a great space for the community when visiting the lake, and we look forward to seeing it in use.”
