The city of Leavenworth announced Sunday the lawn area of Front Street Park is closed due to a “property damage incident” that occurred over the weekend.

In posts on and Sunday, the city explained the park in a central area of tourist town is shut down temporarily. The social media posts also contain a photo that show tire tracks and a significant amount of mud at the park.

“We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding as we work to restore the usability of our downtown park,” the posts state.

The posts also state the Chamber of Commerce’s Christmastown programming was expected to go on as planned. The city did suggest to potential visitors to keep in mind that schedules and programming are subject to change.

There is a video of the incident circulating on Facebook that has more than 360,000 views. It shows a large Toyota truck doing donuts and kicking up mud and dirt in the park. The driver of the truck also got close to two people, nearly kicking up mud onto them and forcing them to run from the moving vehicle.

It is not yet known if the driver has been identified or if any legal action will be taken against that person.

MyNorthwest reached out to the Chelan County Sheriff’s Office for comments or a statement and did not hear back.

Leavenworth Chamber of Commerce spokesperson Jessica Stoller emailed a statement to MyNorthwest Monday morning expressing sorrow about what happened. However, she said those in the city will continue on and this won’t let the city get in the way of enjoying the holiday season.

“We are saddened by the reckless and egregious actions of the person(s) responsible for the vandalism to Front Street Park,” the statement from the chamber reads. “However, it has not dampened the holiday spirit that Leavenworth embodies. Our community takes action, and we have every faith in our small but mighty parks team at the City of Leavenworth, who will restore our beautiful park space in the heart of town for all to enjoy.”
