Reservoir Park is getting a new, accessible washroom and change station. Construction is set to begin on Monday, July 28.

The new structure will feature two washrooms and three change rooms, a covered seating area and a foot wash station. The new building will include important accessibility features and will increase the comfort for all those who spend time in Reservoir Park.

Construction will happen over the next six weeks and Park users are asked to follow safety notices that will be posted on location. The construction team will do their best to limit impacts to Park users.

The new structure will be approximately 27 ft by 36 ft, with a ~500 square foot covered area for seating, picnic tables and shade. The location of this facility is just above the beach in a small, wooded section of the park currently occupied by portable toilets and a waste station.

The facility will meet or exceed the National Building Code accessibility standards and staff are aiming to achieve compliance with the CSA accessibility standards where possible. The washrooms will be available year-round and changing rooms will be open seasonally.

Exterior wash off taps and information bulletin boards are also incorporated into the design. The structure will have a timber framed roof system, and wooden board and batten siding with commercial grade and durable fixtures/materials inside.

Please be advised that Dexter Construction, in collaboration with Public Works staff, will be carrying out asphalt patching on larger gravel-exposed areas throughout the Town on Wednesday, July 23, 2025.

Work is expected to be completed by noon.

Wolfville was once known as Mud Creek because of its mud-filled harbour. Now, every summer, we celebrate all things Wolfville – at the muddiest festival in the Valley – Mud Creek Days.

This year, Mud Creek Days is packed with fun activities that will delight folks of all ages.

We start the celebrations on Thursday evening, July 24, with a Front Street Community Oven Cookout. Then, on Friday evening, July 25, Main Street closes to traffic for an old fashioned street party with live music, a DJ, chalk art and more free, family fun.

Saturday is loaded with excitement starting with a Lions Breakfast on July 26 and followed by an all-day Art Festival in the Post Office Park.

Mudley, our Town mascot, celebrates his birthday on Saturday so we’re throwing him a huge birthday party in Clock Park. Drop by for cake, enjoy the bouncy castle and pose for photos with everyone’s favourite, furry friend.

For those who want to get dirty, the Mud Challenge happens on Saturday afternoon when Willow Park is transformed into an epic, muddy obstacle course with a huge slip and slide.

The Mud Challenge draws competitors of all abilities and the best advantage in this epic battle is a sense of fun and a willingness to get dirty. The Wolfville Volunteer Fire Department will even be there with a pumper truck to help with clean-up!

Kiddos aged 5 – 15 can test their skills in the mud from 1:30 – 2pm!

To wind down a perfect day, Colrain plays at Waterfront Park on Saturday night and fireworks are big part of the show.

Sunday is another packed day! Early risers can catch a historic walk around Mud Creek and the afternoon features the debut of a free, family-friendly  new show called “Mud Creek Magic, the Musical.” This show runs at the Al Whittle.

There’s a Sunday concert in Waterfront Park with Kim Dunn plus “Come on Down,” our monthly open-mic, rocks Willow Park starting at 4pm on Sunday, July 27.

Mud Creek Days are all about celebrating Wolfville with free access to events for folks of all ages and abilities. Community BBQs will offer food options, or pack a picnic and enjoy our parks. Local shops and restaurants will also be ready to welcome everyone.

Town staff will be available at all events for assistance and weather related programming changes will be communicated through www.wolfville.ca.

Please be advised that a watermain break has been detected on Cherry Lane, crews will be turning off the water and start the repairs at approximately 2:30pm. Residents on Cherry Lane from Main Street to Marsh Hawk Drive will be without water from 2:30pm until the repair has been completed. 

Once service is re-established you may experience some discoloured water. If so, you can flush your system by running the cold water for several minutes. This will help eliminate any dirt and air that may have gotten into the lines during the upgrade. It’s best to flush through a tap without a strainer such as a bathtub tap or outside hose bib. 

You may contact the Town of Wolfville Public Works Department at (902) 542-5767, should you have any questions or concerns related to the interruption. We will post updates as we recieve them.

The Town of Wolfville apologizes for any inconvenience and appreciates your patience and understanding as improvements to the Town of Wolfville continue.
