Waterloo Park Circuit design and open house
|
|
Join us for an Open House on Thursday, June 9 between 4 and 8 p.m. (drop-in) at the Harvest Tables in Waterloo Park to view the draft designs for the Waterloo Park Circuit, learn more about the project and ask questions. (If it's raining, we'll be inside the Waterloo Memorial Recreation Complex, Room 200.)
The Waterloo Park Circuit project will connect the east and west sides of the park, and improve access to natural areas in the park.
