Big Campground Proposed for Shediac
Article taken from Times & Transcript Wednesday January 22, 2014
In this article, Victor Boudreau and his fellow camping buddy, Mike Boudreau are starting from scratch building a campground. The two men hope to achieve an eighty acre campground with seven hundred and fifty possible camping spots within it. Victor and Mike hope to reach a four star rating out of five, that most hotels would envy. Most people are thrilled with the idea, but there are some raising concerns with the locals. Some of the concerns include: light pollution, increased road traffic, fencing, and popular walking trails being interrupted. According to Mike and Victor the development will provide accommodations to make sure the camp does not harm any land surrounding, and "work with the town" to do what is required.
Some of the services expected to be offered will be cable television, internet service, abundant play areas, a pool, and splash area for guests. The campground will be near Parlee Beach and attract many new travellers and beach goers. According to the article, if all goes will, the camp could be open for the season of 2015. Overall, I believe this would be a great addition in New Brunswick; the camp will attract tourists, and bringing money to the province.
