She also indicated that the splash park would most likely be open for the public within the next two weeks. The village would do a soft-opening for the park due to Covid and would let the community know through the village’s website and Facebook page. The total cost for the splash park has been $450,000, of which $300,000 have been allocated towards the actual splash park and $150,000 are towards the ground preparation, water connection, drainage, electrical and landscaping. “We have no date scheduled for a ribbon cutting ceremony and won’t, until the Provincial Health Officer gives the okay,” confirmed Worthing.
