~ The Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services (PRCS) department in Colorado Springs has released its annual report for 2024, showcasing the department's achievements, budget allocations, and dedication to preserving the city's cultural heritage.
According to PRCS Director Britt Haley, 2024 was a successful year for the department thanks to the hard work of their staff and volunteers. Their passion and commitment have greatly contributed to enhancing the quality of programs, parks, trails, and experiences available for people of all ages in Colorado Springs.
One of the major accomplishments highlighted in the report is the reopening of the historic 1903 El Paso County Courthouse as the Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum (CSPM). After an $8.2 million investment in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning upgrades, CSPM can now properly preserve and display thousands of artifacts that tell the story of Colorado Springs. The project also added an additional 4,000 square feet of exhibit space.

Another notable achievement from the past year is the development of Antlers Park Dog Park in downtown Colorado Springs. This new park provides a convenient and accessible space for community members to bring their pets. It features synthetic turf, a sitting area, and play amenities.
The annual report also highlights PRCS's efforts towards water conservation. The department has modernized irrigation systems at various facilities such as Evergreen and Fairview cemeteries as well as Patty Jewett and Valley Hi golf courses. These initiatives have resulted in up to 20% water savings and demonstrate PRCS's commitment to sustainability while maintaining healthy landscapes.
