Current Plans
The Planning and Community Services Department secured a grant from Great Outdoors Colorado to install picnic structures - five small and one large (for 100 people). The project will also include four freestanding fabric sail-type structures located in the kiddie ride area of the park. These structures are various sizes and shapes and will provide much needed shade and shelter for visitors. The shade shelters will be equipped with picnic tables and trash cans.

The project includes 7,500 square feet of concrete pedestrian trails to provide access to the structures and playground and 500 linear feet of concrete curbhead around the swingsets.

Location & Addition Usefulness
The project is located within the existing Pueblo City Park, which is not only serves the immediate neighborhoods, but also the entire community. In addition, because of the Kiddie Rides, Pueblo Zoo, and the Party Caboose, this park is visited by people from outside Pueblo as well. The addition of the shelter and shade enhancements will create a more pleasant setting for visitors by allowing them to get out of the hot, Pueblo sun and inclement weather, therefore making their time at City Park more enjoyable.
