The Selo Ukraina Centre received funding to help replace the floor in the Pavilion, otherwise known as the Mini Mall during Countryfest.
They are receiving just over $9,500 through the province’s Community Support Small Grants Program.
“What we’re doing is taking out the old plywood and replacing the material with crushed limestone, compacted and levelled. Covered with a layer of indoor/outdoor carpeting. So it’ll be nice and clean and most of all safe for all the vendors and visitors.”
Jim Perchaluk says the building is 30 plus years old with wood construction and overall everything is deteriorating to the point where they need to fix things up so they can continue using the building.
“The flooring was all original plywood, just built on the ground. So its deteriorated to the point where it’s not level anymore.”
