Pacifico Preserves Spring South Platte Stewardship Day needs your help restoring local parks along the South Platte River! Volunteer groups will assist with mulching trees, debris removal along the trail, cleaning & weeding Centennial Garden, and more. Help us care for these local green spaces and get them ready for a busy summer season!
