Atlantic Parks and Rec Dept. Assistant Director Seth Staashelm reports that the Atlantic Parks and Recreation department started the construction of the New Kiddie Korral Shelter at Sunnyside Park last Saturday, with the help of the Young Professionals of Atlantic. The Young Professionals, he says, were a tremendous help with providing plenty of volunteers to the event to help the City raise the new shelter.

On behalf of the Atlantic Parks and Recreation Board and the Staff, Staashelm said they would like to give a special thanks to: The Young Professionals for providing  volunteers; Chris O’Brien, of Iron Specilities, for his building expertise, and Don Sontag, for the use of his lift.

The shelter, he says, would have never been completed if it wasn’t for their help. Staashelm said also, “We appreciate all the help and support and hope that the community will enjoy this shelter for many years to come once it is completed. We hope to have a ribbon cutting of the shelter in the spring/summer of 2016!”
