Carlisle Lake Construction Project

WHAT'S GOING ON?

            A lot of improvements have been made a Carlisle Lake.  A concrete pad has been poured for an RV pad that will serve as a park host. Behind the new pad, a shop has been built for storage.  A main entry gate will be going up as well.  The Playground has also added two new pieces of equipment and the playground will be expanded with wood chips very soon and new grass planted in that area. There are new boundary rocks instead of the big freeway blocks that enclose the area for a more open look.  Finally the parking lot has been sealed to preserve the current pavement.  Bollards at the entrance of the trails will finish the project for this year.  Next Spring, more rock will be added to top dress the trails.  All this has been done through a legislative grant sponsored by our local Legislators and Senators.
