When the work is finished, Tanana Lakes will be better able to handle the demand seen at the park throughout the year.
Parking lots will be expanded, two concrete vault restrooms will be added to the area, and the lake’s beach will see increased accessibility. “It’s a mat system that gets rolled out under the sand, so you can roll a wheelchair, or somebody who has mobility issues has a firm footing,” Haas explained.
While work in the area began weeks ago, the ceremony was a chance to see how far the project has come since its development decades ago. Fundraising for the $13 million endeavor lasted years, with help coming from a variety of sources. According to Haas, “There’s so many people who have given to this project over the years. It’s endless.”
Once this leg of the project is done, even more improvements are expected going forward. “We’re probably 70 percent of the way when this is done,” Haas estimated. Ideas for future developments include a campground, an archery range, and even something for equestrians.More information on the project can be found
