A doomed provincial park on Grand Manan Island being rescued by locals.
Tourism Minister Trevor Holder announcing an agreement has been reached between the Boys & Girls Club of Grand Manan to operate the Anchorage Park for the 2013 season.
The Alward government decided it would not open the park this year due to a decreased budget and sought a third party to continue its operations.
Holder says after reviewing proposals, the department decided the Boys & Girls Club had an innovative plan for operating the park.
He says a 1 year agreement is being finalized.
