Thanks to a local service club, a landmark in Clinton has been totally renovated. Tuesday afternoon a ribbon cutting and open house were held at Eagle Point Lodge.
Greg Obren, director of parks and recreation for the city, says last year the Clinton Rotary Club asked him for possible projects it could do to celebrate its 100th anniversary. He suggested fixing the patio at the lodge, but the club decided to fund a total renovation.
Outside, the lodge now has a new canopy at the main entrance, and new log walls, while inside some of it was gutted, and there's new insulation, walls, lights, and floors.
Obren says every weekend through the end of the year is already booked at Eagle Point Lodge, and many weekends next year have already been reserved. Even weekdays are filling up to be used for group meetings.
