The Deer Ridge CA started planning the Shelter project prior to the “COVID-19” years. When prices escalated and deliveries were extended, the Deer Ridge CA waited for the market to stabilize before proceeding.
We partnered with the City of Calgary to manage the construction of this wonderful Picnic Shade Shelter. The shelter is a wonderful addition to Yellow Slide Park and adds a covered Picnic area to the Park and the playground.
We need to thank
