Although the boat launch remains closed due to construction, access to the McGregor riverfront—from the Kwik Star parking lot, past the public restrooms and over the railroad tracks—was restored before Memorial Day weekend. Both pedestrians and smaller vehicles can get there now and park in the lot next to Big Buoy’s Tiki Bar. (Photo by Audrey Posten)
