Public Invited to Kaibab Lake Campground Grand Opening WILLIAMS, Ariz. – Members of the public are invited to join the Kaibab National Forest, Williams Clean and Beautiful,
and the Williams Chamber of Commerce on Sept. 16 from 4:30 to 7 p.m. for the Kaibab Lake Campground Grand Opening.
Activities will take place at the picnic ramada near the fishing pier at the campground, with a ribbon-cutting
ceremony at 4:30 p.m. and a Williams Chamber Ambassadors Mixer to follow from 5 to 7 p.m. Hamburgers and hot dogs will be served, and attendees are asked to bring a side dish to share. Water and soft drinks will be provided. The ceremony and mixer are being held to celebrate the completion of a renovation project at Kaibab Lake Campground
that was undertaken by the Kaibab National Forest and local contractor L P’s Excavating of Williams. Improvements to the campground included new pavement, new parking spurs, new campsite amenities such as fire rings and picnic tables, more day-use parking
for improved fishing access, improved ramadas, additional small-group capacity, a re-designed overnight group camping area, and a new camping loop with an additional 11 campsites. The entrance road to the campground was also improved. “We hope that our local community members will join us as we celebrate the reopening of Kaibab Lake,” said Deirdre
