Trails and Open Space Coalition
Programs
Program 1 [2020]
In 2020 we had to adjust programs due to the pandemic. Responding to increased usage on our trails and in our parks and open spaces we created "Get out Spread out" to introduce residents and visitors to lesser used trails, parks and open spaces. We created 150 videos that were available on our website and had 60,000 "clicks" accessing the information. We also created a Trails Ambassador program recruiting and training volunteers to provide user information on our busiest trails in an effort to provide safety information and protect the resource. Due to the pandemic, progress on our Ring the Peak Trail initiative was limited. We did create parks related videos and a TOPS Briefing Book to begin the community conversation around the TOPS program with the goal of seeing the program extended and grow financially.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2020 – Dec 31, 2020Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$248KTrail Ambassador Training and Health Program
In 2024 we again invested staff time in our crew leader training program to improve outcomes for friends groups across the region. We also continued to train new volunteer Trail Ambassadors for our busier trailheads to provide safety information to users and protect the resource. Our Get out Get Healthy program in Southeast Colorado Springs is connecting residents with local parks and trails through guided walks and bike-rides.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2024 – Dec 31, 2024Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$389.4K
