On Thursday, June 3, the Port of Chelan County Commissioners voted to allow limited public access to the former Mill Site property in Peshastin. The public will now be able to access the property for activities such as walking, biking, swimming, fishing, picnicking, bird & wildlife watching, etc.  This action opens up a terrific asset to citizens of Peshastin and the surrounding communities.

The entire Community of Peshastin would like to express its gratitude to Paul Anderman for his exemplary service as Librarian at our small but essential branch of the North Central Regional Library system.  Thanks, Paul for helping us find the things we search for, remembering the topics that interest us and suggesting additional materials without us even asking. Thanks for your words of the day that always keep us on our toes, tidbits of information about what's going on in the world around us, your enthusiasm for the kids in our community, the special programs you offer, and so much more. We hope you'll be with us for another 25 years.  Click here to see more pictures from the celebration.

Another important development as our community continues to grow, is our inclusion in the planning of trails in the Wenatchee River Upper Valley Region.

The City of Leavenworth has adopted an Upper Valley Regional Trails Plan created by a steering committee made up of interested community leaders and recreational and conservation organizations. Steve Keene, Peshastin Community Council Chairman, was a member of the committee.

Some of the goals of the trail plan are to enhance existing trails with new connecting trails, to increase commuting options, and to connect more neighborhoods, residents, and visitors with non-motorized travel and recreation options. Read more about the project on the City of Leavenworth web site.
