About

Strengthen our community through fitness, wellness, and play

Established in 1979, the Clear Creek Metropolitan Recreation District (CCMRD) is a special recreation district located in the historic mining center of Colorado. The area covers roughly 45 square miles and includes the mountain communities of Idaho Springs, Georgetown, Empire, Dumont, Downieville, Lawson, Silver Plume and Floyd Hill as well as surrounding rural areas.

We work cooperatively with other government and nonprofit organizations to enhance the quality of life for residents of Clear Creek County through innovative recreation programs, service, events, and facilities. We're funded by a small mill levy.
