A sign marks the entrance of the Caledonia Public Downhill Sledding Park on Saturday off of Spruce Road near Olson Road in Spruce.
SPRUCE A long-time gravel pit has been transformed into a sledding hill at the corner of Spruce Road and Olson Road in Spruce.
Park goers can choose to sled down six different hills.
Caledonia Township Supervisor Cyndi Apsey said the Caledonia Public Downhill Sledding Park opened in January after a group of community volunteers helped clean up and clear trees from the sledding hills. Apsey said the township has owned the property since the 1980s, but it was previously used by people for target practice.
