Planning the New Recreation Center for Central Denver
Over 70 Denver residents attended the initial public meeting on the central Denver recreation center bond project on Tuesday evening, April 1, 2008. Citizens were introduced to current trends and facilities located in today’s state-of-the-art public recreation centers. They also participated in a ‘Build-a -Recreation Center’ workshop where groups designed their ideal recreation center with a hypothetical fixed budget. At the end of the session, each group described their key ideas and discussed their opinions and suggestions for desired facilities and programs at the future Recreation Center in central Denver.
If you where unable to attend the April 1st meeting, the evening's proceedings are available on Denver 8 TV archives. Click here to view the program.
