This sign was installed and the park dedicated on  Wed., Oct, 28 at 10:30 a.m., at the corner of Buchtel Blvd. and S. St. Paul.  The sign designed by Betsy Johnson Welty was purchased with donations and with half paid by former Councilman Charley Brown.  It celebrates Prairie Park, a 14 acre strip of native grasses and plants along the Historic Buchtel Boulevard,  with pictures and verse.  This park represents the great prairie that was part of the landscape prior to the development of Denver.

This effort was passionately championed for 38 years by INC’s own Diana Helper and her husband John; their dream now a reality.  The park also has paved and natural trails for biking and walking.

Thank you Diana and John for your hard work to preserve more green space for all of us to enjoy.
