Rain or shine, the Post Falls Rotary Club envisions this event not just as a one-time occurrence but as an evolving German-themed counterpart to the beloved Post Falls Days celebration.
“Prost in the Park has the opportunity to grow into something really big while also celebrating our city’s German heritage,” Rotary Secretary and event organizer Christina Petit said. “We’re looking at it to be a family-friendly Oktoberfest-style festival that we hold every year.”
Frederick Post, the namesake of Post Falls, was born in 1821 in Herborn, Germany. In 1871, he met Coeur d'Alene tribal Chief Andrew Seltice at what is now known as Treaty Rock, purchasing 298 acres which would eventually become the heart of Post Falls. This shared history has led Herborn, Germany and Post Falls to recognize each other as sister cities.
