Have you walked on the trails, especially in winter when the snow is removed and one can enjoy the fresh air, open space, and extraordinary view of the mountains? Have you seen elders from nearby facilities pushing their walkers on the trails?

Have you helped the library conduct storytime under the charming pavilion?

Have you watched your own children grow up on the playground as the beautiful trees planted long ago grow up, too? Seeing the trees mature and provide shade as your children roll down the playground hill or sled down?
