Construction of NEW multi-purpose agricultural facility

  Site preparation has begun on the construction of the much anticipated Alex Fraser Park multi purpose agricultural facility.  When completed the facility will offer opportunities for new agricultural events at the Park.  In times of disaster such as the fires of 2017, the facility will become a management center to coordinate relief for pets and livestock from evacuated areas.
