We’re still connecting and programming While we continue to observe official guidelines for social distancing, we are happy to be connecting with you via Zoom and outdoors at our beautiful parks and trails as we can. Registration is required for all programs and instructions for Zoom will be provided. Program offerings are as follows: • Zoom Meetings for select social programs will continue into September. • Picnics in the Park will begin mid-July. • Trail Walks will begin mid-August. • Lifelong Learning Programs beginning in August are free and will be held at the Highlands Ranch Library. Social distancing and gathering number guidelines at the time will be followed for all programs. Thank you for your patience as we adapt to new public health guidelines. We look forward to your joining us for Active Adult programming scheduled through December. Stay safe and connected.
