Thank you PCCP for the opportunity to partner with you again. We appreciate everything you do for our community and allowing us to be a recipient for several years running has really helped eliminate some of the financial burdens we face as a non profit.
If you would like to volunteer at PCCP this month your hours count toward our commitment to them. There are still a few shifts available. Please reach out with any questions about this opportunity.
And also please shop at PCCP!!!!! They donate 12 different non profit grants each year so what you spend gets put right back into our community!!!!!

💛 This August, our grant beneficiary is McGraw Memorial Park!

Cared for by the Park County Historical Society of Colorado , this beautiful 20 acre property along the South Platte River in Bailey is a local treasure.

It features:
🥾 Morrow Mountain trail system
🪵 Preserved historic Park County buildings
🛶 River access for kayaking, rafting, and fishing
🧺 Scenic picnic areas

This year's grant will go toward a new ADA ramp at the park, making this historic space easier to enjoy for aging and disabled visitors in our community!

It's the perfect spot to hike, relax, and remember where we came from.
