Mary Starsmore Discovery Plaza Ribbon Cutting

🌲 Join us as we celebrate the completion of major improvements to the Starsmore Visitor and Nature Center and the grand opening of the Mary Starsmore Discovery Plaza!
Over the past several months, the Starsmore Visitor and Nature Center has undergone significant upgrades to improve accessibility, enhance visitor experiences, and support outdoor education at the gateway to North Cheyenne Cañon Park.
Improvements include a new outdoor classroom and discovery plaza, renovated restrooms, enhanced pedestrian access, ADA improvements, and other site enhancements designed to better serve visitors for years to come.
The new plaza honors the legacy of Mary Starsmore, whose passion for environmental education and stewardship helped shape the visitor center and inspire generations of park visitors.
