Cj's Snack Shack and Mini Golf
Rivers Provincial Park R0K 1X0 Rivers, MB, Canada

Roof is on, most of the outside walls are on. Progress is steady. Still need deck, porch roof, paint, trim, and of course all of the inside . Lots of decisions to be made, speaking of decisions, the winner of our last giveaway is Heidi Krahn - pm us and we will make arrangements for you to receive $20 Chamber Bucks to use at any local participating business. Thanks for commenting and sharing.

We are coming along nicely with the new build. . Starting to actually have a vision of what Cjs will look like. Still lots of work to do but hopefully get er closed in before it gets cold. Then we can add some heat and work inside for a bit. Tell us your favourite thing/food about Cjs, like and share, and we will enter your name for $20 Chamber Bucks...

The changes have started, so exciting! Stay tuned !

WE GOT THE CALL!!!! We are SO excited to say that we are officially reopening TOMORROW July 25th @ 11am!!!

Come one, come all (including your fur babies of course) because were ready for ya!!!!... Last chance to get your entries in for the favourite item contest! (See previous posts for info). We will make the draw tomorrow!!! ** Please Share **

As Im sure youve all heard by now, Parks Manitoba has decided YET AGAIN to postpone the reopening of the park. Not only to campers, but to our loyal customers and beach goers as well. We wish there was better news as the park maintenance team has worked SO hard to make the park look absolutely amazing after the amount of water that weve had! There is so much more to the park than just the lake. People want to get out for picnics, bike rides, mini golf and of course icecrea...m!!! Weve tried reaching out to the powers that be in Winnipeg and have yet to be given a clear answer as to why its remaining closed. The Municipality has been asking for answers as well with very little success. We hope to have some answers soon so that we can get back to business and will continue to call daily to remind them that were still here waiting and THE PEOPLE WANT IN!!! To any of those who would like to ask for some answers for themselves personally, the number to call is: 204 724-3778. Good luck and we again apologize for not being able to open for the THIRD time...cest la vie I suppose! Feel free to share

The Powers that Be have spoken. The park reopening has been extended to July 23rd (which will likely be revisited closer to the date again). As our Granddaughter Grace is obsessed with the movie Inside Out, we thought showing who we currently feel like would be fitting - Sadness. We were SO looking forward to seeing all of the smiling faces through our little CJs windows tomorrow but we know that the province is doing what they must to keep us all safe. ... Please continue to share your favourite menu item on our contest as we will keep it running until opening day - which we pray will stay the 23rd. Stay safe friends!

IMPORTANT INFO ON REOPENING We are so excited to see everyone, however the Province needs to reevaluate the safety of reopening the park tomorrow. The openi...ng day MAY be extended to a later date. Please keep in mind that while the park is closed, there is NO entry allowed. Not by car, truck, boat, plane, bike, legs or unicycle. We promise AS SOON as we know for sure, our lovely FB followers will be the first to know!!!! Stay tuned to our page for updates!

FINALLY...after what seems like forever, we are happy to announce that we will be open for business again Friday July 17th at 11:00am. We are so excited that we wanted to do some giveaways! See rules and prizes below!!! How to Enter:... 1) Like & Share this post 2) Comment below what your favourite menu item is 3) Make sure you like our FB page! Prizes: 1st Prize - $10 Chamber Bucks + your ONE favourite item from the menu 2nd Prize - $10 Chamber Bucks 3rd Prize - Your ONE favourite menu item We look forward to seeing you all this weekend!!!! **Chamber bucks CAN be redeemed at CJs along with many other local businesses.

We would like to offer our sincere thanks to Kendra and Travis from Walkers Greenhouse for supplying us with a trailer while we get things back in order!

Now that the lake water has receded, we have been able to get a better assessment of the work that lies ahead. Being able to get up and running again quickly yet safely is our main priority! We are reaching out to our wonderful community to ask if anyone has a 10-12ft enclosed trailer we could rent for a week to store things in while we clean, sanitize and repair/restore CJs. If you are able to help, please let us know via messenger as our phone lines are down from the sto...rms. Stay safe friends!
