County’s Wapiti Rec Area open-house tonight

The County of Grande Prairie’s open house for the proposed Wapiti Recreation Area in is tonight and a local group is hoping to put forward the idea of a bike park.

Matt Wild with Wapiti Nordic Bike Club will present the proposal.

“It’s a very inclusive opportunity, all you need is a bike to enjoy it, you don’t need a pass, you don’t have to make a time that you have to be there as long as the sun is shining and the trails are dry you can go ride.”

Items in the proposal include: snowshoeing, walking and cycling trails; fishing; and a picnic and day-use area.
