We’re excited to announce a new challenge for you to get out and explore all 14 miles of our Sand Creek Greenway–and earn your own “14” Sunflower Patch! Let’s get outside!
November and December are great months to explore the Greenway as it winds through Aurora, Denver and Commerce City. Bike it, walk it or run it or a combination of all three! This is a challenge you can do with your family, with a friend or completely on your own. You can do it in one, two, three or four segments (or more, really); this is a super-flexible and completely personalizable challenge. It is FREE and if you complete it according to instructions–while supplies last–we’ll send you a patch to commemmorate your achievement!
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Email us at SCRGPstaff@sandcreekgreenway.org
and tell us you want to do the challenge.
We’ll respond with an email with the complete instructions, and here are the highlights:
To get started, we’ll need the name, mailing address, (so we can mail the patch!) age and email address of each participant.
We’ll email you links to trail maps and four “assignments” you must complete–such as telling us about a specific part of the trail or taking a photo (we love selfies!) that we can share with others. “Take a photo of your favorite animal at Star K Ranch (or inside or outside Morrison Nature Center)” or “A bench just west of the Triple Creek trailhead is in memory of ‘George,’ what’s George’s last name?” or “Take a photo of your favorite part of the mural.” Yes, they’re THAT simple! And to make it even easier, for each of the four segments you have your CHOICE of assignment!
Send us an email with the dates you worked on the challenge, where you started and stopped, and your completed “assignments.”
We’ll comfirm your completion and mail your patch with a certificate of completion!
