The District of Squamish would like to thank some local businesses who helped complete the Squamish Adventure Centre sidewalk project by extending the sidewalk from the new “Cultural Journey” information kiosk to the Adventure Centre. Bob Fast of Cardinal Concrete came forward and offered to complete the project as a contribution to the community when it was identified that the sidewalk would stop at the new “Cultural Journey” information kiosk.
The sidewalk project extended the sidewalk from the new “Cultural
Journey” information kiosk to the existing sidewalk at the Squamish
Adventure Centre. Cardinal Concrete spearheaded the $16,000 project and
received support from Summit Concrete Specialties Ltd and Coast Valley
Contracting.
“I would like to thank Cardinal Concrete for stepping forward and not
hesitating to take on this project once the need was identified,” said
Mayor Greg Gardner. “ It shows once again what a great community we
live in and the continued support from local businesses that repeatedly
give back to the community. We are a proud community and this gesture
exemplifies the community spirit and pride our local businesses have in
Squamish,” continued Gardner.
The new “Cultural Journey” information kiosks are located along the
Sea-to-Sky highway as part of an aboriginal tourism experience. There
are seven informational kiosks between Horseshoe Bay and Whistler.
Visitors will learn about local aboriginal culture and history by
stopping at these “Cultural Journey” information kiosks.
