New Class Ideas

Your creative input is important in developing new classes and programs, or improving existing ones. Please email your suggestions and ideas to info@hylandhills.org.

Special Disabilities Mainstream Program

Hyland Hills participates in a mainstreaming program to help integrate persons of all ages with disabilities into general recreation programs. To help facilitate mainstreaming, we encourage volunteers from the community to participate in a program as a helping “partner.” In most cases, the recreation partner participates free. If you would like more information on the program or on volunteering, please email info@hylandhills.org.

Special Olympics

This international organization offers training programs and competitions year-round to participants ages eight through adult with mental and/or physical disabilities. Sports include weight lifting, basketball, volleyball, gymnastics, equestrian and aquatics. Participants pay either no fee or a very minimal fee, thanks to contributions and the efforts of volunteers. For more information on participating, coaching, volunteering or contributing, call 303-592-1361.

The Gift Of Giving

Trees, shrubs and flowers can be living memorials for important events in your family’s lives. Donated park benches, picnic tables and bike racks can also enhance your favorite park. New or gently used equipment gifts such as basketballs, soccer balls, toys or books are also appreciated.

Real estate bequests, memorial gifts, endowment funds, securities and cash are also options for contributing to the Hyland Hills Park and Recreation District. Please discuss your giving ideas with Joann Cortéz, 303-650-7644.
