Columbia Parks and Recreation officials are inviting you to attend Thursday evening’s dedication of the first phase of the Perche Creek trail.
A short ceremony is planned for 5:45 this evening on the trail. You’re encouraged to arrive early and walk or bike the 1.25 miles on the MKT trail to the site. You can park at the Jay Dix station or at the Scott Boulevard trailhead.
The first phase of the Perche creek trail connects the MKT to Gillespie Bridge road and includes a 200-foot bridge that crosses the creek. Funding for the trail comes from the voter-approved park sales tax and a recreation grant that is administered by the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (DNR).
