A memorial project in Morden is getting some help from the University of Manitoba Engineering Department.

A walking bridge over the spillway on the Morden dam to complete the walking paths around Lake Minnewasta and Minnewasta Golf Course.


Town Councillor Ron Laverty says they applied to the university's idea program.


He says communities and organizations can submit their projects for students to accept and complete for credits.


The students will come up with things such as the concept plan and cost estimates.


Laverty says the family felt this would be an ideal project to remember Mrs. Winkler as she loved to walk, and her husband Howard was instrumental in the development of the dam.
