Southern Colorado will reap more than $6 million for parks and outdoor projects, Great Outdoors Colorado announced on Wednesday. Almost $4 million of that sum will feed three open-space projects — two in the San Luis Valley and one in the Upper Arkansas Valley. Another $1.2 million will provide for the Arkansas Riverwalk Trail extension project in Canon City and the final phase of the Kim Equine Pavilion and Education Center in Las Animas County. Pueblo County will receive about $200,000 to add a baseball field at the Runyon Sports Complex and provide new turf for Corsentino Field there.
