An unforgettable day! The sun was shining down as community members gathered to celebrate the recent grand opening of the new Curt Holland Memorial Park. Dedicated to fallen Commerce City Police Department Det. Curt Holland, the new pocket park sits on land generously provided by the Villages at Buffalo Run Property Owners Association. It's a special place where local children can play and where Curt’s memory will continue to thrive in the community he loved and served. 💙 A huge thank you to the Holland family, FOP Lodge 19, Buffalo Ridge Metro District, Suncor, and all our incredible project sponsors for making this dream a reality.
