The Grace Center for Athletics and Community Service provides a premier athletic venue for St. Mary’s High School and southern Colorado non-profit organizations serving elementary through high school aged youth, particularly those who are disadvantaged and at-risk.

This premier 25-acre athletic complex includes facilities for:

  • Football

  • Baseball

  • Soccer

  • Lacrosse

  • Field hockey

  • Track and Field Meets

  • Special events

"USA Archery chose the Grace Center for its terrific location, beautiful appearance for photos, and very supportive staff. The facility itself is first-rate and concerns like parking are a non-issue at the Grace Center. The Grace Center staff has been fantastic to partner with, and the school clearly understands the magnitude of an Olympic Trials event."
