🌳✂️ The Paragould Regional Chamber of Commerce was proud to celebrate the official opening of Phase 4 of the 8 Mile Creek Trail with a ribbon cutting ceremony attended by city officials, Chamber members, and community leaders.


In his remarks, Parks Director James Kashak shared, The trail "is a place where life happens. It's where families spend time together, kids learn to ride bikes, runners chase goals, and where neighbors become friends. It's become the daily rhythm in our community. As the trail continues to expand, it will connect more people, memories, and moments that matter. The trail is an investment in people and the future of our community. It's about connection and it's about building something that will serve generations to come."


The event also included a ribbon cutting for a new bench installed along the trail by Leadership Paragould Class XXVIII's Blue Team as their class project, creating a lasting contribution for residents and visitors to enjoy for years to come.
