2009 mother's day in the gardens

Thank you for spending Mother’s Day in one of the most stunning places in Denver, strolling through the lush Gardens and exploring the "Jurassic Gardens" exhibit. It is a perfect place for families to celebrate Mom. Family activities were set up throughout the Gardens to provide hours of fun. Be sure to make mom her very own Mother’s Day greeting card in our craft area (while supplies last).

There was food for sale, however feel free to bring your own picnic basket. (No alcoholic beverages are allowed in the Gardens.)

Need a break from the gym but don’t have time for a day trip to the mountains? Come to Chatfield for a brisk nature walk along our 2 miles of trails. Keep an eye out for migrating birds, ducks on the ponds, foxes – and, perhaps, a glimpse of a bear or two in the distance!
