Caroline's Kurt Browning Arena will be upgraded



Photo and story by Helge Nome

The Kurt Browning arena in Caroline, named after the area's famous figure skater, will receive upgrades in the form of additional change rooms to be constructed along the sloping west side (seen in photo) and the renovation of the existing change rooms and lounge.

The Clearwater County Council was informed about progress on this project at its regular meeting on April 10 by staff who said that John Murray Architectural Associates is in the process of being hired for engineering services.

The million dollar project will be overseen by Clearwater County staff based on, in part, a $500,000 grant to the Village of Caroline from the Government of Alberta.
The winning bid for engineering services came in at $54,800. The same firm was successfully used to oversee the expansion of the Westview Seniors' Lodge in Rocky Mountain House.
