Due to recent activity, we want to remind residents about drone usage guidelines. Unauthorized operation of remote-controlled or motorized aircraft (including drones) or boats from, in, on or over any Master Association or Metropolitan District owned property, including open space and parks, is prohibited. Operation of remote-controlled aircraft (including drones) is allowed by permit only in Community Park’s air/land space. Community Park is located across the street from Shaffer Elementary. To obtain a permit, contact Gina Hawk in the Ranch House Recreation Office at ginah@kcranch.org or 303-979-4070.

Lower Cougar Trail, completed last year, forms a 1.8 mile long “lollypop” loop that is accessed from Valley Parkway and Massey Draw Trail just east of its intersection with Colorow Trail. Upper Cougar Trail, currently under construction, will connect with Lower Cougar Trail at its southernmost point. The Ken-Caryl Ranch Open Space Committee would like residents to help officially name the trail (Lower Cougar is just a working title). Please see the full News Article to understand trail naming specifications. Send in your nominations for the new trail name by July 25 to seanw@kcranch.org. 

The Ranch House Pool will be closed until approximately 2 p.m. Saturday, July 16 for a swim meet. The Community Center and Bradford Pools will be open regular hours both days, so we encourage residents to use one of those pools. We apologize for any inconvenience.
