Riverfront Park?? What a WASTE of taxpayer's money!! Every time I drove by that place this summer (during the super-duper tourist season), I didn't see any more than 2 cars there, most times NO CARS & NO PEOPLE. The stench of the Salmon River should create a nice memory for the thousands attending the Blueberry Festival 'concert' at the park.
