Pioche Heritage Park

Pioche Heritage Park

IN 1985, Mary Louise Christian, as President of the Chamber of Commerce, secured permission from the State Highway Department to develop this area into a park. Plans were drawn and work was begun. It progressed well however in 1986 when Mary Louise and John Christian were tragically killed in an accident, it was still in stages of development. Many town folks rallied around and this park was dedicated as a memorial park for them. Jerome Sears donated the train to enhance the park and a gazebo was built with the mine tunnel backdrop to make it a charming place.
