GREENWOOD VILLAGE | While Cherry Creek School District students were on summer vacation, the venerable Stutler Bowl — located on the campus of Cherry Creek High School — got a significant facelift. The old turf and track surfaces were removed and replaced with new ones, which will be used in earnest starting Aug. 14 with the opening practices of the 2017-18 prep athletic season.
