Construction Begins

Construction has begun on the new Co-op Gas Bar/C-store/Carwash project located on Kelsey Trail (Highway 10). Minish Construction of Swan River was awarded the contract as general contractor. When completed, the facility will include an eight lane gasbar with canopy, a 2,000 square foot convenience store, and a state-of-the art six bay wand wash. An exterior wash bay for larger vehicles, boats and RVs will be open during the warmer months. This new site will allow members access to extended hours of operation, pay-at-the pump technology, a much wider selection of confectionary items and a modern, clean and efficient carwash. The expected completion date is December 2010.
