It's been a long time coming for the community of Lundar, but their new arena downtown is taking shape.

Reeve Brian Sigfusson tells us it's coming along well.

"A lot of the doors and windows are in," he says. "Most of the framework for the walking track is done. They're starting to put the decking on it. Our bleachers are coming along real well. I think everything in the roof of the building is in -- we're just waiting for the lights."

Sigfusson says the arena's interior is also moving forward, and people will soon get an inside glimpse.

"We'll have kind of an open house, with coffee and doughnuts," he says. "We'd really like to see the whole community there as we are looking for input. It should be four or five days notice of when this is going to be, but it won't be too far away."

The project's budgeted at roughly 3.5 million dollars.
