Our Associate, Carter Marshall, PLA, presented at the 20th Colorado Open Space Alliance Conference in Steamboat Springs last month. You’ve come a long way baby! The conference has grown to be one of the premier Colorado public lands gatherings every year.
an inspiring story
The topic of this year's presentation for Carter was “Building Nature: An Inspiring Initiative”, a thorough explanation of our recently completed Sanchez Nature Play Kids Discovery Zone & Inspire Trail project. A joint presentation with Rob Burdine, Open Space Superintendent from the City of Lafayette, it was one of several nature play related session topics. This trend in community park design is here to stay!
