Municipal Park Pavilion

Originally built in 1903, the Pavilion was the town's meeting place, a dance floor and even roller-skating ring.   After some ninety years of use the building was showing it's age.  There were two options discussed; either tearing it down or moving it to Pioneer Park.   But in December 1993 President Tom Klingelhutz approached the City and the Pavilion became a Lions project.

The project committee consisted of: Jim Braun, Floyd Esjornson, Daryl Gunnarson, Tom Lampi, Tom Klingelhutz, Mark Miller, Steve Niklaus and Stan Otto.  Their plan was a three-phase multi-year project beginning April of '94 and estimated at $100,000.
