Our Wedgie-Worthy Water Slide has officially opened, with a fun “Noodle Cutting” ceremony which only seemed fitting!
Doing the honors: Nicole Cooper, Recreation Director (currently on Mat Leave) and Heidi Nugent, Recreation Director (filling in for Nicole) - and two little helpers! Both Nicole and Heidi worked tirelessly behind the scenes, applying for Grants, organizing, planning, scheduling and coordinating the MANY steps, people, tradespersons and contractors involved in any large project involving grants, architecture, excavation, plumbing, electrical, concrete, fencing, mechanical, engineering, and inspections!
Our heartfelt thanks to the following:
Commercial Pools
John’s Electric
Nugent Plumbing & Heating
Pulver Fencing
JC Lavich
Hopkins Welding & Mechanical
Public City Architecture
P Sumner Engineering
A. Kuyp Excavation
Kathleen Martin, Public Health Inspector
Manitoba Government, Building Sustainable Communities for their generous Grant
And a special shout out to all our staff, especially our Public Works, Parks and Water Plant staff for stepping up whenever we needed something, which allowed us to open the pool while the slide was under construction!
And last, but certainly not least – a huge thank you to our Pool staff and all our residents for your patience, we hope you enjoy the new slide!
We hope to see everyone out on July 6th for the Recreation BBQ (5pm at Riverbend Park) celebrating all the recreational opportunities Neepawa has to offer!
