Boaters headed to Danville’s Lake Vermilion now have a new concession stand at the Conservation District’s boat ramp. It is thanks to a donation from the Julius W. Hegeler II Foundation, according to Jamie Pasquale. Pasquale is the Director of the Vermilion County Conservation District,
The new air-conditioned building is land-based, and will replace the more than 30-year-old floating dock and building that has been used. Pasquale says the old building will be removed. The dock will remain temporarily until the gas pump can be moved to a new dock.
