The Human Potential Running Series recognizes the tremendous efforts provided to Staunton State Park from the 501(c)3 non-profit organization "Friends of Staunton State Park." We recognize that use of these public lands and trails is a privilege and not a right, and those trails have been formed in part by the sweat equity of organizations like Friends of Staunton State Park.
In developing their goals for Staunton State Park, Colorado Parks & Wildlife gathered feedback from, and worked with, neighbors around what would become the park. Some of those neighbors recognized what a special place Staunton was destined to become and decided to get more deeply involved; thus, was born the Friends of Staunton State Park in 2012, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated solely to the preservation, promotion, and protection of this one Colorado state park. The founding members were integral in building and measuring trails, installing boundary fencing, raising funds for the Grand Opening in 2013, and much more.
