Denver’s Twentieth Street Recreation Center will one of many recreation centers in the metro area that will see a decrease in hours due to city budget cuts in Denver on Feb. 20, 2024. Denver Recreation Center hours are being cut across Denver to help the city save money to fund its migrant crisis. Beginning Feb. 20, Denver Recreation Centers will begin to reduce hours. Regional Centers open 7 days a week will only be open 6 days a week. Those open 6 days a week will stay open for the same number of days but the hours of operation will be reduced. Denver rec centers are among the first impacted by budget cuts that Mayor Mike Johnston says are needed to fund the city’s immigrant response. The large regional rec centers, like Carla Madison and Central Park, which require a higher price of membership, will now be open just six days. No centers will be open seven days a week.
