History
James M. Robb was a civic leader.
James M. Robb was a civic leader, former parks board member and chair, elected representative and champion of state parks. Robb helped create the Colorado Riverfront Foundation, referring to this Grand Junction area park as a “string of pearls.” Colorado Parks and Wildlife and the communities involved are working together to build a future 35-mile river-corridor trail system to connect this “string of pearls.”
