The City of Bonney Lake has officially announced that the boat launch at Allan Yorke Park will close for the winter season starting November 4, 2024.

The drawdown is essential for reinforcing the dikes, ensuring they can withstand potential winter storms and wave action. By implementing these preventative measures, the city aims to protect both residents and the natural environment. The closure will remain in effect until spring 2025, and residents are encouraged to check the Cascade Water Alliance website for updates on the refill schedule.

This announcement highlights the city's dedication to proactive management of public resources and encourages residents who use the park for recreation to plan their visits accordingly.
