Welcome
FALL 2020
A 12-Month Mile High Flyer For Hyland Hills & Its Residents
As I began to write my quarterly message for this season’s unique, and very first all-digital Fall Activities Guide, I began to reflect on the course of events that have occurred at the district over the past 12 months. If you are familiar with the hills on Water World’s Mile High Flyer, the ups-and-downs depict the emotions of these last 12 months. Just one year ago, we were preparing to celebrate the 3rd Anniversary of PARKFEST, an event with food fare, family fun and live music inside our brand-new amphitheater set at the beautiful 85-acre Clear Creek Valley Regional Park. It was a time of celebration, as we accomplished goals that were set forth from a promise to bring first class park and recreation facilities to our residents, and created out of a bond initiative that was supported and endorsed by our residents in the 2002 election. It was also at this same time, we announced our intentions on asking our residents to extend the current Mill Levy Tax in the upcoming May 2020 election. As we began our campaign, we once again engaged in conversations, and talked to our residents about future improvements they wanted to see within the district. Those discussions began laying the foundation of a new park and recreation Master Plan process that took place over the next several months. Our new plan prioritizes repairing and renovating old facilities, improving and conserving resources at our parks, and maintaining the quality of our current assets. These interactions brought new found excitement and exuberance inside the district, and as we turned the page from 2019 to 2020, we began making new promises, showcasing our confidence in giving residents what they asked for, and to ask for their support on Ballot A on May 5th. Heading into the Spring of 2020, we were building tremendous momentum to what we hoped to be a successful election campaign, when a global pandemic caused the district, and the entire world to take pause. This pandemic would bring great uncertainty at a time when our residents needed us the most. Stay-at-Home orders were enacted that caused most every facility in the state to close, including all facilities and parks within our district. While we found new ways to communicate with and entertain our residents via social channels, emails, and from time-to-time Zoom calls, we knew we had an obligation to our residents to provide recreation at a crucial and critical time. Our staff worked countless hours researching and finding ways to slowly re-open certain facilities that aligned with health department regulations. Over time, we managed to bring golf, parks, miniature golf, ice skating, gymnastics and recreational activities back to our residents. I could not be prouder of how hard this team worked; our parks department staff, our golf staff, managers, operators, everyone has put forth such tremendous effort over the last 6 months, they are my “heroes,” and we hope their hard work has helped provide some level of enjoyment for you and your family during the summer…and the best part? On May 5th, in the heart of this global pandemic, you, our residents had the fortitude to vote YES on Ballot A, securing a win for the district, and more importantly our residents, and now it is time to once again attain goals, and keep promises like the one we accomplished one year ago. You are now “heroes” of the community with your commitment to ongoing parks and recreation for future generations. As we continue to maneuver through this pandemic and begin putting our master plan to work, we will continue to interact with residents to make sure your needs are being met. We also will keep the safety of our residents and working staff a top priority. We’ll follow all protocols while pushing to complete projects on time, and with the great staff here at Hyland Hills, continue to provide our residents with first-class parks and facilities. As we continue to work hard to meet your needs, I hope you and your families stay strong, remain healthy and enjoy the fun this season brings. We look forward to seeing your smiles for years at our parks, and I look forward to providing some exciting updates in our Winter Guide. We’re in this together and look forward to being with you in the end. — Yvonne Fischbach, Executive Director
