Work to shape the Butte tourist park for spring and summer began with about twenty Kiwanis members digging nearly 200 feet of trench for a water line. The pipe will be four feet underground to provide cool drinking water. Plans include a dining hall of about 240 by 80 feet costing around 400 dollars and new trees. Garden club members will assist in beautification as park officials push preparations for the upcoming tourist season and visiting public.
