Canon City Area Recreation and Park District — Attraction in Colorado

This areas Rec district has much to be desired! I have a 13 year old child that was signed up for baseball. They took my money and signed him up. A couple weeks go by and I get a call stating he doesn’t meet the age and grade requirements. Even though at the time of sign ups he did! BSo now he’s all pumped to play, has been practicing vigorously for weeks, just to be told after the fact he doesn’t meet the criteria. Even though the age limitations are to age 14 and he’s 13. But since he is going into 9th grade and not 8th grade he isn’t aloud to play. So I was directed for him to play baseball through his school. His school doesn’t offer baseball until you’re a freshman. Basically if you’re on track with school and not held back, when you get to this age you have to sit out a year because there is no programs for you!...

I would like to see a large rec building with a large indoor pool. Also need to put in a frisbee disc golf course down at the Riverwalk in between Reynolds and ninth Street as there is plenty of room without bothering casual walkers on the pathways. I like seeing the progress they are making down at Centennial Park and along the river. Probably should build another skate park somewhere. Some of the equipment at Harrison Park needs replaced... ie the child’s...

If Google would allow 0 stars this is what the CCRD deserves. They just want kids to play for the money, don’t have coaches that teach kids skills, and have refs that don’t know the rules whatsoever. Then when you mention it to the people at the parks they talk down to the parents like we don’t know what we are...
