Rotary Park - Trail, BC - Bookcrossing Zones on Waymarking.com

This is a small linear park along the right bank of the Columbia River. It is located just above the old bridge, which was built in 1911-1912 and is now orphaned. The park contains picnic tables and benches along the river, a gazebo, shrub and flower beds, signs pointing to Trail's two sister cities, Bocchigliero, Italy and Sagamihara, Japan and its sister region, Spree-Neiße, in Germany.

In the park is also a large Ishidoro, a Japanese stone lantern, which was a gift to the City of Trail from the City of Sagamihara.

This park is quite popular as a lunch location for the locals as it is just a few blocks from downtown and is a nice, quiet spot to relax mid-day. Some bookcrossing zone contributor must have cottoned on to this fact for, on Thursday, June 09, 2005 they released Kiss Mommy Goodbye in the park, leaving it on a bench in the Gazebo, which is a great lunch spot, rain or shine.

With the opening of the new pedestrian bridge right beside the park, it is now equally accessible from East Trail.
