The American Bald Eagle Foundation has a new asphalt parking lot, following an “unbelievable” donation from Southeast Roadbuilders, said Cheryl McRoberts, ABEF director of operations.
“It makes it look like a brand new building,” she said. “For years, we’ve fought with all the dirt and the mud and everything else coming in.”
McRoberts said the foundation had a few days’ notice before a Southeast Roadbuilders crew last week moved on from paving the parking lot at the Port Chilkoot Dock.
Schnabel previously had promised ABEF founder Dave Olerud, “Someday, I’m going to pave that parking lot for you,” McRoberts said.
She estimated the value of the donation at $80,000.
