Project Description Country: USA Location: Wasilla, AK Total Budget: $12,222 Area of Focus: Community economic development Activity Type: Community Development: Construction/Renovation Summary: Repaint, replace floor boards, and build an access ramp to a retired rail flat car to be used as an outdoor stage at he community event center. Several years ago the city placed a retired rail flat cat at he community center with the goal to turn the flat car into an outdoor stage. The City has been unable to prioritize the project and the flat car has fallen into further disrepair and is in danger of being removed and discarded. There is currently no outdoor stage available at the community center. This project will tune the flat car into a useable stage and be branded as the Rotary Railroad stage. The project will be completed during the summer of 2023 - specific timing depends on the weather as this project will take 3 weekends to complete. The project will be completed by Wasilla Noon Club members assisted by a painting contractor and a welding professional. Tasks are available for all skill levels. Funds will be used to purchase lumber and supplies to complete the project and to pay the painting and welding contractors.

Estimated time frame 6 weeks. 21-Aug-24 by Carolyn Lambrecht We have relocated the RR Car to the Aviation Museum in Wasilla. We have scheduled time between now and the 1st of September to remove the current decking material. We are contacting the mill to have the wood delivered to the new location to prep for installation. Painting needs to be completed before the new decking material can be attached. This is weather dependent. As I get further details and pictures, I will add them. 21-Oct-24 by Carolyn Lambrecht Invoice and Cancelled Check
