Some sizable expansion will be coming to Ste. Rose's Turtle River Trails thanks to funding from the Co-op's Community Spaces project.
The Turtle River Trails announced it a bit ahead of schedule this week, as the excitement was overwhelming.
Dauphin Co-op's General Manager Lorne Eiffert is proud to be a part of the building of these new community spaces.
"We're very pleased today to announce that Co-op is giving $85,000 dollars to Ste. Rose Recreation services for the development of their phase 2 of the Turtle River Trails. That donation is courtesy of the Co-op Community Spaces Program. So very exciting day."
We can’t wait to share the news at the official announcement on Wednesday, June 14 in Ste Rose behind the community hall.

The money will be going toward revitalizing the existing Ducks Unlimited trails in the area, adding a disc golf course, and creating a new Nature Playpark.
Later Stages of this project could also see the addition of things like a zip-line, a kayak launch for the river, and so much more.
The Co-op Community Spaces Project has donated a million dollars to several different areas, and they're always happy to help the areas they serve to grow and flourish.
