Welcome!
Special THANKS to the Stapleton United Neighbors (SUN) Sustainability Committee for the Earth Day fundraiser for the Sand Creek Regional Greenway.
A full house enjoyed delicious Chipotle fare, Izzy and Fat Tire drinks, and watched the movie, Food Inc.
Thanks also the MCA for hosting the event in their wonderful conference center.
Also thanks to the Morris Heights Neighborhood Association who worked long and hard to clean up the Greenway around Sand Creek Park on April 17 – we picked up over 50 bags of trash before the rains came. Thanks to all who participated.

An easy (and free) way to donate
to Sand Creek Greenway while doing your shopping!
I-Give
is an online shopping website that donates a percentage of
the purchase price back to a non-profit of your choice. It
is easy because the shops are brand name businesses where
you already shop, like Expedia, Amazon, Macy's and PetsMart.
These businesses, and
hundreds more, have agreed to give a certain percentage
back (from 2-26 %) to the charity of YOUR choice! Find out
more about this great opportunity to give to Sand Creek while

General
Information
Sand
Creek Regional Greenway is another jewel in the necklace of
trails that has made the metropolitan Denver area a national
model for developing a linked regional trail system. This
almost 14-mile public greenway connects the High Line Canal
in Aurora, Colorado with the Platte River Greenway in Commerce
City. Along the way, it passes through Denver and the former
Stapleton International Airport site. We invite you to become
acquainted with a part of our region that is fragile and perishable.Please
note: There are a number of creeks in Colorado named "Sand
Creek." This Sand Creek is not the location of the 1864
Sand Creek Massacre. For more information on that Sand Creek,
please visit http://www.colorado.edu/csilw/sandcreek.htm.
