Halloween Fun at Hyland Hills |
|
More than 1500 people attended the Halloween Spooktacular at Adventure Golf & Raceway on October 29th.
The costumes were amazing, and the traditional interdepartmental pumpkin carving contest yielded some seriously great entries.
Ultimately, it was the Administration Department’s Guardians of the Galaxy entry that came out on top by garnering the most votes from Spooktacular participants!

Please remember the Hyland Hills Foundation on Colorado Gives Day, December 7, 2021. For 28 years, this all-volunteer Foundation has been raising money to support recreation and cultural opportunities for kids in the Hyland Hills community. One hundred percent of all funds raised are used to help young people experience and reap the benefits of recreational activity and sportsmanship. The funds are used for recreational scholarships to ensure no child gets turned away from a sport due to their family’s financial circumstance. Additionally, the Foundation has funded FREE swimming lessons for area kids through the Be-A-Fish Learn to Swim program, which has already provided more that 12,000 local kids the life-saving skill of swimming. Thanks for your generosity!

Water World Wins Again!
Pictured above are Hyland employees Justin Schuvie, Joann Cortez and Bob Owens, Director of Water World, who accepted an award from the World Waterpark Association in October, where Water World was honored with a Wave Review Award for this season’s radio commercial. The award is significant because the judging considers entries from all around the globe. The award follows the park’s Top Ten World Waterparks designation by Amusement Today Magazine earlier in October which tracks all types of entertainment facilities around the world. In that global judging, Water World came in at a distinguished No. 5!
