The grand opening of the Oksana & Quinn Dutchyshen Memorial Splash Park will take place tonight at 8 p.m. in the campground area of the Gilbert Plains Country Club.
It will feature the official ribbon cutting and sign reveal.
Board Member Kimberley Perih is excited about the grand opening.
"Every board member is elated to have it open. It's been a long time coming... To have it up and running — especially when it's this hot out — for all the kids to use, it's quite a feat," Perih said.
The splash park was named in honour of Gaylene and Wayne Dutchyshen's granddaughters — Oksana and Quinn Dutchyshen — who were killed in a two-vehicle collision north of Dauphin in August 2019.
The driver of the other vehicle has since been charged with impaired driving causing death.
