February 2011 ANNIVERSARY
Enhancing property values and creating quality of life through recreation, community events and leadership
Community Gives Back! In 2010 the HRCA presented over 20 community fundraising events which awarded over $40,000 in proceeds to local nonprofits. Events such as “In the Pink”, a breast cancer fundraiser; the Taste of Highlands Ranch; the Highlands Ranch Circus; and annual community recycling events contributed over $29,500 to the Colorado Cancer Coalition, the Saddle Up! Foundation, the HRCA’s Highlands Ranch Cultural Affairs Association, and the Highlands Ranch Community Scholarship Fund. In addition to these events, the Race Series donated $10,500 to 12 nonprofits, including Denver ROTC, Highlands Ranch Park & Recreation Foundation for Civic Green Park, Mile High Pow Wow Association, El Centro Su Teatro, HRCA Therapeutic Recreation Department, Jordan’s Angel Foundation, Pura Vida, Douglas County Rescue League, Arthritis Foundation, Junior Achievement, and Rock Canyon Cross Country Team. Thank you, Highlands Ranch, for giving back to our community.
