opportunities first at Eugene T. Mahoney State Park, Platte
River State Park, Louisville State Recreation Area, and Schramm
Park State Recreation Area. Given their common location
along the lower Platte River, these parks will be treated as an
interconnected unit, and visitors will be encouraged to visit all
four parks. The parks will be divided into zones. Some zones
will focus on serenity and relaxation, while others would
focus on excitement and discovery. Expanded recreational
opportunities are expected to feature amenities such as ropes
courses, trail improvements, natural playgrounds and toboggan
runs. Following implementation of the initial venture parks
concept, the Commission will incorporate elements of the
Venture Parks plan into other parks across the state.
