Center Park Wins A Variety Of Awards
The splash pad at Center Park is no longer the best kept secret of residents and visitors to Centennial! Readers of USA Today recently voted the splash pad at Center Park as the fifth best in the nation.
Center Park is an 11-acre city park with a lot to offer: an adventure playground for kids of all ages, a great variety of shade and seating options, looped walking trails, Plant Select xeriscape gardens, climbing walls, universal accessibility, a natural wetland area—and an amazing splash pad at the center of it all.
Center Park is truly an award-winning park; other awards include:
ASLA Colorado's Design Merit Award
Governor's Best Downtown Park Award of Excellence
GOCO Starburst Award
ENR Mountain States Best Project Award
Centennial Citizen Reader's Choice Award for Best Live Music Venue

While you're there, be sure to check out one of the most unique and popular areas in the park. There is a natural play area made of tall grasses and fallen logs. It winds into and along the edge of the playground where kids can stroll along the boardwalk, hop between the stepping stones, and get some dirt under their nails in a natural setting.
