A public funding campaign from local citizens, organizations and businesses raised $600,000 for Benton County Conservation Board. These funds will go toward adding an additional land adjacent to the Wildcat Bluff Recreation Area. The addition more than doubles the size of this popular park, providing even more outdoor recreation opportunities in the county and protecting sensitive Cedar River floodplain. The new addition is closed to the public as the transfer of land is processed, but there is an anticipated event to celebrate the opening this spring.
