War m Springs Con-
struction is in phase 2 of
the Highway 3 pedestrian
improvement project.
Construction finished
the first phase last year,
and is now completing the
Highway 3 area just above
Highway 26. When fin-
ished, paving and other im-

highways 3-26 intersection.
The project is funded by
BIA 638 dollars, featuring
a sidewalk, street lights that
use solar power, the road
paving and storm runoff
system.
The work requires a lane
closure on Highway 3, with
brief delays for through
traffic.

low protocols: Wearing
masks and maintaining a

hard work and dedication of young people who have
been raising their animals—also start on opening day.

have seen them as “true artistry.” The Paul Maurer

candy food concessions.
Bands are lined up to take the stage every night of
