We Need Your Head!

In just a few short weeks, the entire community will be putting their heads together, literally, to fight for funding to end pediatric cancer. The shears are primed and ready for the Annual Shave the Mayor Event for St. Baldrick’s on Saturday, April 27th.

This year marks the 6th annual Shave the Mayor

for St. Baldrick’s event here in Parker. To date, this incredible event has raised nearly a quarter of a million dollars for cancer research, but sadly, the need for funding to find a cure for pediatric cancers remains and that’s where all of you come in.

Head over to shavethemayor.com and sign up to GET SHAVED at the Vehicle Vault on the 27th or simply donate to a Shavee who has already signed up and is working towards their fundraising goal! You can also sign up to volunteer at the event &/or become an event sponsor.

Real superheroes live in the hearts of small children fighting big battles and often, those little warriors are fighting with huge smiles on their faces. Show your support by showing up and being a part of Shave the Mayor for St. Baldrick’s and leave with your heart full and your head bald!

Cancer has touched all of us, in some way. We all know someone who has heroically faced and fought this unforgiving and tenacious disease. Coming together in the fight to find a cure, especially on behalf of the youngest of heroic cancer patients, is a small act that can create a huge ripple effect in the lives of all those affected.

Shave the Mayor for the St. Baldrick’s Foundation Saturday, April 27th Vehicle Vault 18301 Lincoln Meadows Pkwy, Parker www.shavethemayor.com

How can you help?

Douglas County Veterans Golf Tournament The majestic eagle taking flight that is the Veterans Monument, Freedom’s Keeper, in Veterans Plaza in Downtown Castle Rock is a constant, genuine reminder of the selfless and too many times, ultimate sacrifice that our Veterans make for us every day.

The Douglas County Veterans Memorial Foundation was started to get that magnificent eagle monument erected. Now that the monument is in place, the focus of the foundation has shifted to continually support our hometown heroes, our local veterans.

Grants are being accepted for the DCVMF Veterans Assistance Grant program. This program is designed to assist with needs that local Veterans have, whether they be transportation needs, ADA home modifications, service dogs, funeral services, or any area where a service gap exists.

This year, you can be a part of the amazing work the DCVMF is doing by teeing off in the Douglas County Veterans Golf Tournament, which will be held on Thursday, May 16th, 2019, at Red Hawk Ridge Golf Course in Castle Rock, Colorado. The cost per golfer in this tournament is just $150 and that cost includes breakfast, green fees, cart fees, range balls, prizes, and lunch after golf. There will be an 8am shotgun start and the proceeds from this fantastic event will directly benefit Veterans right here in Douglas County. This tournament will be a four-player scramble. Players can enter as a four-person team or you can enter individually, and teams will be built for you. Get your golf buddies together and get registered, the deadline to get in on the fun and tee up for this extremely worthy cause is May 6th.

Events like this take a team of people to make it successful, which is why the DCVMF is looking for sponsors for the golf tournament as well. Sponsor packets can be downloaded directly from the site at www.dcvmf.org. Contact Jarrod Wildman at 303.915.8699 or email jarrod@dcvmf.org for sponsorship levels and more information.

What better way to spend the day than on a beautiful golf course with great friends, playing for an even greater cause? Get your clubs ready and get registered for the DCVMF’s Golf Tournament at Red Hawk Ridge Golf Course! Go to dcvmf.org to get registered today.

Senior Life Expo With the senior population rapidly growing, services and programs for seniors are expanding equally as fast. It can be rather overwhelming to make sense of it all. The goal of the Douglas County Senior Life Expo is to bring seniors and their family members together with providers of numerous services, all in one place. At this free event, attendees will be able to meet with representatives regarding “all things senior” topics including housing, health care, insurance, senior organizations, home care, estate planning, assistance and services, funeral and cremation services, transportation, government programs and services, and activities for socializing and keeping busy, and much more.

The Senior Life Expo will also offer free seminars with topics of interest to seniors by experts in their respective fields. Two offerings will be offered run every half-hour beginning at 1:30 pm. Topics included in these seminars include ““Wills, Trusts and Estate Planning”By Darrell Gubbels, Gubbels Law Office, PC., “Medicare 101—Differences of Medicare Products”By Chuck Hoppe, Alpine Life Planning Strategies, Inc., “The Truth About the New

Reverse Mortgages—What Every Senior Should Know” By James Warburton, PRMG and “How a Hereditary Cancer Screening Test Benefits You and Your Family” By Stephen Fantl , Global DNA Care.

For a complete list of presenters, go to http://www. castlerockseniorcenter.org Even if certain services are not needed now, it is valuable to know where to find help before the time comes when those services are needed.

This free event, organized by the Castle Rock Senior Activity Center, is a place where seniors, and those who care about them and for them, can come to get questions answered, to seek out services available now or get important information to plan for the future. A current list of presenting partners and schedules of seminars can be found by visiting www. castlerockseniorcenter.org.

Motto Mortgage Summit 509 Wilcox St, Suite 107 Castle Rock, CO 80104 www.mottomortgage.com/offices/summit-castle-rock

Are you in the market to purchase a new home? It is hard enough to find the right house but understanding the mortgage process can be overwhelming. Meet Kevin and Tiffany Brown of Motto Mortgage Summit. They opened their business in August 2018 in a convenient location on Wilcox Street, between Fifth and Sixth Street. They are a local family with fantastic options for your mortgage needs.

Motto Mortgage Summit is a locally owned mortgage brokerage. As brokers they are able to shop for the best loan for every borrower - every time. They are committed to serving Castle Rock and the surrounding communities with open and transparent communication throughout the mortgage process. They are happy to give back to their community and offer free appraisals for veterans, first responders and teachers!

Are you worried about your credit score or curious how much home you can afford?

They love to sit down with first time home buyers and educate them on the process, and show that buying a home can often save money over renting. Many people have the misconception that they must have perfect credit and a significant amount of money to put down - they enjoy showing people that there are many options available.

Maybe you are already familiar with the mortgage process.

They still have much to offer.

You are their customer, not the bank. They work with a number of lending partners so they will present you with competitive bids and options.

Kevin and Tiffany are a local family that live in Castle Rock and enjoy being a part of the community both personally and professionally. They would love the opportunity to discuss your needs and situation. This isn’t just a job to them, they like helping their neighbors with the home buying process.

Taking time to get to know each of their borrowers and help educate them on the home buying process is what makes this couple special.

You are in good hands as they both have a background in sales and relationship management and opened Motto Mortgage Summit because they realized that the mortgage process can be intimidating, and often the communication is lacking.

They offer a better experience for the borrowers and their referral partners. Check out the website, especially the information under Resources.

It makes something that feels confusing feel simple and easy.

Kevin and Tiffany are always willing to sit down and look over your current situation and discuss options. Don’t forget, you are their customer and they want the very best outcome for you!
