The City of Revelstoke has received more than $300,000 from the Columbia Basin Trust to revitalize Grizzly Plaza.

Plans include replacing the bandstand, updating lighting and installing street furniture and signage.

The Columbia Basin Trust’s Community Outdoor Revitalization Grants totalled $1.3 million for 10 communities in the region.

“Residents have told us how important outdoor gathering places are in their communities—to host events, share food, be physically active and connect with others. As we look forward to safely coming together again, the Trust is supporting community efforts to create spaces that residents and visitors can enjoy,” said Will Nixon, senior manager of delivery of benefits at Columbia Basin Trust.
