Cherry Creek Falls Park official opening Sunday
The official opening of Cherry Creek Falls Regional Park will be held on Sunday, June 12 at 2 p.m. at the park.
The event is a joint venture between the Regional District of East Kootenay (RDEK) and the Meadowbrook Community Association to celebrate the creation of the park rather than a rock quarry as had been proposed by the mineral tenure holder.
There will be a ribbon cutting and a few short speeches followed by cake and refreshments but no barbecue as was mentioned in a previous RDEK advertisement.
Everyone is invited to view the amenities: the new parking lot and kiosk, the decorative safety fence and the stairway to the bottom of the falls, plus the decorative picnic tables and gorgeous benches overlooking the falls.
NOTE: A lot of readers have been asking for directions.
Take Highway 95A north from Kimberley to Thomason Road (turn left). Go up to Clarricoates Road and turn right – take Clarricoates, which turns into Ta Ta Lost Dog FSR, until you come to the parking area for the falls.
