Enhancing our community through parks and programs
Enhancing our community through parks and programs
Prickly Pines Disc Golf Course has been a much valued and heavily used recreational resource for the past 12 months. In providing a safe recreational outlet for so many during the pandemic, the course has unfortunately but expectedly been beaten down a bit and needs to heal. Baskets will be removed from the course beginning March 17, 2021 and the course will remain closed until at least June 1, 2021. We will be spreading native plant seed throughout the area, adding mulch around basket areas, and limiting traffic in the area to promote the regrowth of vegetation. We look forward to seeing the natural area that makes Prickly Pines so unique heal over coming months and to re-opening the course for play this Summer. Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.

Transplanting the Pines
This tree purchase program is being introduced to assist the District in saving as many trees as possible on newly acquired property as improvements and future park development is planned. District residents may register for a tree selection appointment and purchase Ponderosa Pine trees to be relocated to their property.
Trees range from 6-20 feet in height and cost $550 - $750. Cost includes tree, delivery to your property, and planting. These trees must be watered for the first three years to ensure health and survival.

RECREATION CENTER IN ELIZABETH?
The District has recently assembled a citizen committee to explore the design for a community recreation center to be built in Casey Jones Park. The committee will be seeking public input and feedback through surveys and open house type events during the planning process and looks forward to hearing your thoughts.
The District plans to present the design to the community later this year and engage with residents on the discussion of potential funding mechanisms to make this dream a reality.
DISTRICT RECEIVES $150K GOCO GRANT
On March 12th, the District learned that its grant application to GOCO to help expand the Casey Jones Campground was approved. As a component of the developing Casey Jones Master Plan, the campground expansion will include 10 full hook-up RV campsites, 4 all-season yurts, and a tent camping area. The new campground loop will be developed north of the existing campground and east of the rodeo arena, offering a more secluded camping experience. The expansion will also provide for more on-site camping during events and provide the District with increased revenues to support further park improvements / development.
