This spring, the Adventure Earth Centre located in Sir Sandford Fleming Park will be getting an outdoor classroom.
The city poster describes it as having a “covered portion with picnic benches, wood which is environmentally friendly and is the suggested lumber for standard use in all parks, a ramp to the lower portion to ensure accessibility for all community members and participants, no alterations to existing heritage building.”
Also in Fleming Park, a tender is out for replacing the stairs.
