Stefani Ewert-Wells

Wilson Resident

" I am really excited to see Astoria Hot Springs re-open. What great way to utilize the development of a natural resource, so locals and visitors alike may take advantage this special place year around. I also believe that creating structures, pathways, and managed pools will help conserve the areas around the Snake River, which were being trampled by curious soakers as they navigated their way down to un-managed hot spots in the river. "

Phoebe Coburn

Teton Conservation District

" I’m really excited for Astoria to open because I’m looking forward to the community having an accessible place to be together in nature. "

Olaus Linn

Wilson Resident

" I think one of the greatest things that Astoria will bring to this community is that ability to go and sit in the hot springs and enjoy this totally natural swimming environment but without being a long hike away or in a private club. It’s really in a unique spot. "

Ariana Snowdon

Astoria Campaign Committee Member

" The community support, even from the beginning has been really exciting, and I think that speaks to what a special place this is and the memories and how treasured they are by members of this community. "

Orion Bellarado

JHHS Educator & Local Business Owner

" When Astoria closed down it was like a little piece of the community's soul died and to have that back will be tremendous. "

Teresa Nelson

Teton Valley Resident

" I think the best part of having Astoria Hot Springs rebuilt is not having to go sit in the muddpot anymore and having a place where we can go and enjoy our family in a clean, healthy, wonderful environment, where kids are safe and we can have fun. "

Bari Bucholz

Alpine Resident

" I love the idea of working from our natural resources and bringing people together all year round! "

Jenny May Shervin

Farmer's Market of Jackson Hole Executive Director

" The best thing about bringing Astoria back is being able to go somewhere south of town. I live south of town and it will be a wonderful place to bring my family, enjoy the pools, have little picnics and enjoy the area again. "

Kristen Fox

Astoria Park Conservancy Board Member

" I think it’s going to be great to have nature trails to be able to hike around; picnic areas are going to be wonderful just to be able to get outside with family and friends. "

CONSTRUCTION UPDATES

Thanks to our partnership with The Trust for Public Land, Astoria's construction is underway. Watch our progress via our live web cam and view the renderings of the newly designed Astoria. The Trust for Public Land will continue to oversee these phase-one improvements, as we focus on preparing for our public opening.  Our joint effort during The Campaign for Astoria Hot Springs Park engaged hundreds of donors and supported the protection of the 97-acre property, community design for the new park and hot springs, and construction of the hot springs and facilities.  We are grateful for The Trust for Public Land's financial investment as a lead donor to the campaign, their leadership during the course of this project to-date, and the incredible gift of the Astoria property to Astoria Park Conservancy in early 2020.
