New Pavilion Project Nearing Completion In Walkerton

A new recreational project is nearing completion in Walkerton.

The Community Improvement Committee (CIC) has announced that the new pavilion project in downtown Walkerton is partially complete.

The new picnic shelter is located north-west of the Saugeen River off Durham St. It is the only public green space in Walkerton's downtown, and is jointly funded by the Municipality of Brockton, Spruce the Bruce, the Walkerton Homecoming Committee and the Nuclear Waste Management Organization (NWMO).

The CIC says they hope to also add a public washroom space as well. The jointly funded project will be available for use in the spring.
