The shelter that stood at the Grant City park since its construction by the Grant Lions Club in 1979, has found a new home next to the Lion’s Shelter at the Perkins County Fairgrounds. The fairgrounds can always benefit from more shaded area and the shelter was in need of relocation due to the new pool being built at the park.
Several fair board members were busy setting poles and pouring in the concrete for the “new” shelter at the fairgrounds on Monday.
