Park History
This park has evolved as a dedicated baseball complex utilized primarily by local sports associations. The park was originally named “Columbine Hills Greenbelt” before the athletic facilities were developed. The Massey Draw Regional Trail was constructed in 1980 with funding assistance from Jefferson County Open Space.
In 2022, this site was improved with voter-approved funds from the 2017 mill levy.
