On this week's podcast, Bob sits down for a chat with Tim Wolken, the head of El Paso County (CO) Community Services Department, which includes the county parks system.
We discuss how some foresight from the county commissioners kept the department from taking a big financial hit during the COVID-19 crisis, the accomplishments of the parks department over the last year, and what's ahead for 2021. What new parks are coming, what parks are expanding, and what park is getting renamed, all in this podcast.
