Mesilla Valley Bosque State Park Celebrates 1st Anniversary
The first anniversary of the Mesilla Valley Bosque State Park, which opened to the public on December 13th, 2008, will be celebrated with an open house on Saturday, Dec. 12 from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. at the Park, 5000 Calle del Norte. The Friends group will serve birthday cake and coffee to all visitors. We’ll have a brief presentation at 11 a.m. recapping the milestones of the last year. The regular Park fee of $5 per vehicle will be waived during this event. The public is invited to join the festivities at the Park.
Our new State Park is a true gem. A mix of high desert and wetlands, it is rich with wildlife and flora. More than 300 acres are there to explore. We recognize that having a resource such as this Park is valuable to our community, but that the community is the heart of a place like Mesilla Valley Bosque State Park.
Although we are a new State Park Friends group, our membership now numbers more than 50. We meet the first Monday of every month at 6:30 p.m. at the Park. The public is invited to attend the meetings.
