MCPARC has recently acquired the Guyses Run Fishing Park near Colfax. The old Eastern, Peabody Coal property has excellent fishing opportunities and unlimited recreational potential. MCPARC along with WVU and the Marion County Commission is planning major infrastructure improvements to turn this naturally beautiful park into a top of the line community fishing park.
