Woodland Park to host Spring Business Expo and State of the City Breakfast

The Woodland Park City Council meeting on April 3, 2025, highlighted several upcoming community events and important local initiatives.

One of the key announcements was the Chambers Spring Business Expo, scheduled for April 10 at the U Pass Cultural Center from 5 to 7 PM. This event will feature a variety of local exhibitors, providing residents with an opportunity to connect with local businesses and learn about products and services available in the area. The public is invited to attend this free event.

Additionally, the council discussed the State of the City Breakfast, set for April 17 from 7:30 to 9 AM at the same venue. This gathering aims to offer insights into the city’s future and foster connections between community leaders and residents. Tickets for this event can be purchased through the chamber's website.

In other announcements, the Parks and Recreation department reminded residents of several upcoming activities. The deadline for baseball registration is April 14, with a late registration option available until April 22. The Woodland Aquatic Center will host an egg dive on April 12 from noon to 1:30 PM, and registration for the summer swim team, the Woodland Park Wahoos, is now open, with practices beginning in May.

The council also noted the grand reopening of the U Pass Cultural Center, which will feature a community concert with Carrie Dell on April 9 from 6 to 8 PM. This reopening follows recent upgrades to the facility, including fire suppression and HVAC systems, allowing it to host events comfortably during warmer weather.

Lastly, the city has engaged a lobbyist to represent Woodland Park, along with the cities of Monument and Fountain, during the state legislature's session. This initiative aims to address various bills introduced this year that may impact the community.

Overall, the meeting underscored the city's commitment to community engagement and proactive governance as it prepares for a busy month ahead.
