After many years of anticipation, Port Edward is now home to its very own community gazebo, thanks to the generous support of BG Group. The company provided a $20,000 grant to the Port Edward council for the construction of the gazebo, which is beautifully situated in front of the municipal offices and school. Following over a month of dedicated work, the project was completed and celebrated with a formal opening at a community barbecue on the evening of  August 26.

Former Mayor Dave MacDonald expressed the significance of the project, saying, "This is just a great day for Port Edward … we have been talking about this for at least 15 years. The vision was to have a gazebo, but we just didn’t have the funds to do it. The new gazebo is not only a testament to the community's resilience and perseverance but also a welcoming space for gatherings and events that will serve as a focal point for residents for years to come."
