Parks and Rec Tourist Information Centre – Coming in 2026!
Parks and Rec are so excited to proceed with a Parks and Rec Tourist Information Centre ….and would like to pass along a special thankyou to the Government of Saskatchewan for working along with us on this project to see it to fruition.
The Centre will go kitty-corner to the Red Barn – a lot of thought has gone into the centre and with that we have two goals in mind. First to acknowledge and honor our past and secondly to highlight our present. With that the Centre will feature an open concept grainery acknowledging our farming community …along with signage highlight our rich community history.
Our hope is the un-manned centre will become a common rest stop for people off the #1 Highway and then once there ..as the famous Chef Emeril Lagasse says …BAMM!! We hit them with all the information and amazing services our community has to offer.
Life any project it comes with some costs. We are currently looking for sponsors interest in advertising at the Centre. Lots of yearly options including:
-
1ft by 1ft Business Name w/t QR Code in building $ 200.00
-
4 ft by 4ft Business develops signage in building $ 600.00
-
