State Building Commission approves Peninsula State Park Project

You will be able to shower and use the facilities a little more comfortably when camping at Peninsula State Park in the future. The State Building Commission, which includes State Senator Andre Jacque, approved the design report and granted the authority to renovate some of the flush toilet and shower facilities at Peninsula State Park. According to the State Building Commission’s agenda, the approximately $2.9 million project will renovate three facilities in Welcker’s Campground, including two toilet/shower buildings and one flush toilet facility, along with one toilet/shower building and one flush toilet facility in the North Nicolet Campground. The facilities are outdated and beginning to fail, including the sewer lines that serve them. The timeline shows that the project will go out to bid this spring before construction begins in May. The hope is the project will be completed by early 2025. The Peninsula State Park bathroom facilities project was a part of the over $388 million in state funds approved by Governor Tony Evers on Wednesday. Some of the other projects funded on Wednesday include the construction of a Wisconsin History Museum in Madison and Food and Farm Exploration Center in Plover.
