In mid-November, excavation took place for the new woodshed near the front office. This project is many years in the making and will see construction starting in the spring as the weather warms up. This new building will not only allow for significantly more firewood storage but also centralize Friends storage within the park. The existing woodshed no longer keeps up with the pace of firewood sales and poses a safety hazard for users who need to cross traffic to buy ice and firewood.

The new location (pictured below) is centralized in the front office’s parking lot. A garage door will allow remote operation for park staff, who will no longer need to manually unlock/lock the ice and firewood each day.
