The Friends of the Railroad Park, Inc. (FORRP) successfully applied and was awarded a $6,144.18 grant from LP Building Solutions, US Hwy 63, Hayward, WI, to build the turntable control shack, deck, railing, and turntable outer fence, projects to be completed spring of 2022. The funds will also provide for the accessible stamped concrete walkway to the Railroad Park Pavilion.
Charitable giving plays an important part in Louisiana-Pacific’s (LP) community responsibilities and relationships. The LP Foundation provides funding to each mill for its annual Community Mill Grant Program, allowing mills to support nonprofits in their local communities. FORRP is very grateful to LP Building Solutions in Hayward, WI as well as the LP Foundation for this magnificent award, affording us another funding to continue to beautify and enhance Spooner Railroad Park.
