Spray Park Official Opening

Residents of Emo gathered Tuesday night for the official opening of its spray park.

Construction was completed just a few weeks ago.

Fundraising chair Lincoln Dunn says it was a full community effort to make it a reality.

"The support from the community has been unbelievable," says Dunn. "Some of the partners who have worked with us on this project have been there every time we've gone back look for material, labour, assistance or expertise. It's been just outstanding."

Dunn also credits the support of several volunteers in reaching their objective.

More than $225-thousand was raised for the project over a three year period.
