Do you think of golf when you think of Coeur d’Alene
Idaho? I doubt that many people do. Did you know that our fair city is the home
of the golf course with the world’s only floating green? Coeur d’Alene has gone from a charming town
of 16,000 in 1970 to become the center of business and recreational activities
with a population of more than 35,000 today!
French-speaking fur traders named our lake in the
mid-1800s. Legend says the traders
believed the local Indians to be sharp traders and they called the lake Coeur
d’Alene meaning “their hearts were sharp as an awl (note the spelling meaning a
sharp piercing tool used for cutting stones). Around the turn of the 20th
century we became a thriving railroad and steamboat town.
Today, the city bustles with festivals, fairs and
concerts. Many of the activities center
around the lake with its pristine beauty that has earned its reputation as one
of the world’s most beautiful. A River
City Plumbing is proud to serve the plumbing needs of Coeur d’Alene ID and Spokane
WA. From our family to yours…have a very
Merry Christmas and a happy holiday season.
