$5-Milliion Williston Animal Shelter Could Be Opened By Next Spring --- September 9, 2017

A little over six years ago we noted the passing of a great pioneer in the Williston Basin oil patch: "Buck" Scheele. One of his legacies will be the construction of a $5 million animal center. Neither the press release from the office of the  City of Williston Economic Development or The Williston Wire provided the back story (if either did, I missed it) but it was reported that the "Buck Scheele Family Animal Center is back on track."

The goal is to have the center opened by the spring of 2018.

The center is located out by Spring Lake Park and the Frontier Museum. The story was not more specific but that sounds like the center will be either north or south of the Frontier Museum across the road from Spring Lake Park.
