Park History
This park was originally called Columbine Knolls South II Undeveloped Park. The HOA began developing a master plan for the park in 1988. The first phases of the trails system were initiated in the early 1990’s. By 2001 the entire trails system was renovated to an 8’ wide concrete surface.
