Co-op Community Spaces Program donated $150,000 to help fund the construction of Phase Two of the Dauphin Derailleurs trail project.
At the future site of the trailhead, Lorne Eiffert, the General Manager of Dauphin Co-op made the announcement this morning.
Phase Two is expected to be located just north of Riding Mountain National Park entrance off of Highway 10.
Eiffert says this is one of the largest donations the program has ever given out.
“It’s a fantastic amount of money that’s being funded for the group. Dauphin Derailleurs was one of 24 recipients throughout western Canada to receive funding form Co-op Community Spaces Program. We had over 800 applications that came through. The criteria is, this one falls into the active healthy lifestyles, and building the community.”
Phase two will offer a family-friendly trail and can be used for all sorts of outdoor activities including running and hiking.
