Damage at Pither's Point

Damage to Pither's Point Park near the baseball diamond will cost the town of Fort Frances as much as $5000 to repair.

The repairs to the public green space cost everyone in the community and could easily have been avoided by having more respect.

Operations and Facilities Manager Doug Brown says not much can be done until the spring to repair the eyesore.

“In the spring we’ll have to go in there and landscape it basically. Put it back to the proper levels, take all the ruts out, fill the holes and plant sore grass. It’s an eyesore for everyone that goes up to the Point.”

The park is in the process of filing an official report with the OPP and is asking for any information related to the incident.
