Principal Researchers:
- Project Team: Chris Schooler, CCCD staff, Anthony Pozzuoli, Emily Josephs, CCCD students
- Local Participants:Tina Darrah, Kim Whittbrodt, and Charlie Schultz, Town of Fairplay
This community project was a collaboration between the Town of Fairplay, South Park Recreation District and the Fairplay School District to develop a preliminary plan for a multi-purpose park that would serve the schools and surrounding communities. CCCD students, in partnership with the local residents, developed a preliminary plan that included a neighborhood fitness park, high school regulation baseball fields, little league fields, recreation practice fields, a walking path and exercise stations. The preliminary design plans are part of an application to Great Outdoors Colorado (GOCO).
