Thanks Hyland Hills!
We want to thank the entire Hyland Hills community that we serve for its understanding and patience during the Covid-19 pandemic. We appreciate you because we are aware that program cancellations, facility closures and limitations have affected your life and the good-for-you recreational activities that you are accustomed to.
We assure you that the District will continue to do its part and when Hyland Hills is given the official go-ahead to resume full operations, we will be ready. Despite these challenging times, Hyland Hills has remained productive and here are a few examples of what we’ve been doing: • All District facilities are being maintained and thoroughly cleaned in observance of
Covid-19 protocols, with rules and operations also adjusted appropriately.
• Currently, we are building two new and exciting attractions in a newly reimagined area at Water World for 2021.
• Water World earned a
Certified Autism Center designation, making it the first Colorado theme park to earn such a certification to serve guests with autism and sensory issues.
• The District continues working with Adams
County on free Covid-19 testing in the Water
World parking lot.
• Accessibility adjustments have been made to
District websites for better navigation.
