Sandwich bread

Looks like it will be turkey sandwiches for a couple days. Anyone recommend a baker that makes baguettes/rolls etc? King Soopers is ok, but just ok. Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving!

Part Time Daycare

Any recommendations on daycare places that will agree to part time (3 days per week) and are “reasonable-ish” on cost? Looking about 6 months out…

Missing dog

Two nights ago our friends' dog Faiza ran off during the Starlighting fireworks. He is likely near the downtown area; please DM me if you see him!

Snipers at Starlighting

I noticed multiple police snipers positioned on top of parking garages and buildings at yesterday’s Star-lighting. Is this normal for large events or was there a elevated threat

Bike access to 105 from north Meadows?

Does anyone know if it’s possible to get to 105 from the northern part of meadows without having to go south to Wolfensberger and crossing over? Doing some looking on Google maps, it seems like there are various paths, but they also seem to feed into what looks like private property. Not looking to try and sneak through someone’s yard! Would like to commute by bike to work near Waterton, but not looking to cycle along Santa Fe International Speedway. TIA

Old resident curious about arrest

Trigger warning for students!

Hi there! I’m a previous resident of Castle Rock. So cool to see how much the town has grown and began to thrive. I know some of the old timers aren’t stoked about the commercialization, but from my point of view growth is good.

I have a question about my old teacher James Thomure. He was arrested this summer and charged with SA against a minor. A kid. It wrecked me because I looked up to that guy but now I’m so sad for the student. Are there any case updates? So sad to see this happen in our schools. Hoping all of our students are feeling safe and supported.

Anyone have a good and affordable tile person?

Would really like to have a backsplash installed in our kitchen and I've had bad luck with Home Depot and Lowes installers. I also don't want to spend several thousand dollars but I'm lazy and don't want to do it myself. Appreciate any recommendations someone is willing to share.

Harassment by neighbor for weed.

Had a neighbor come over to my door and start yelling at my wife for the smell of weed in front of our house. Telling us we are pieces of shit and should move out of castle rock because you can’t do that stuff here. He even called my kids pieces of shit.

I know you can possess, consume and even grow here in castle rock on private property. I own my house. Not that it’s anyone’s business, but I’m a vet with ptsd, and I find cannabis far more beneficial than pills ever were.

He was threatening to call the cops, which frankly I was fine with because we did nothing wrong. If anything I’m tempted to call the cops on him for harassment just so there is a record of his belligerent behavior.

How would you handle this situation?

Dog Boarding/Doggy Daycare Recommendations

Hello! I just moved to the area and was wondering if anyone had any good recommendations for a place to board my dog when on vacation or put them in doggy daycare during the week.

Thank you very much! 😃

Switching from Kaiser to Aetna in Castle Rock- Family Practices?

Pretty much as it says. My husband's company sent out the new medical information and Kaiser is going up and Aetna was just the better option for us right now. But now we have to find new doctors and everything. Any recommendations? Thank you!

Anyone have a fence guy?

All that snow finally took my fence out (it’s needed repairs for a while). Anyone know a good fence guy that’s decently priced and does quality work?

Art community in CR?

I moved from Denver to CR in June, for what I thought would be a temporary move to be near family, but is turning out to be kind of indefinite. Would love to find an arts community here, to make it feel more like home. Is there any sort of collaborative studio space I could be a part of? Any co op galleries or first Friday things? I’m feeling like Castle Rock lacks flavor but would love to be wrong on that.

Anyone have Kaiser Insurance?

Open enrollment now has Kaiser as an option with an insanely low deductible. Curious how you find the doctor’s offices in Castle Rock and Parker as well as the main facility in Lone Tree. Anything else I should know?

Will it stick?

Seems kind of warm right now (9am Friday) and the roads are wet, and this new wave of snow isn't accumulating on the streets in the Meadows. We have anniversary dinner reservations tonight... the roads will be fine at 6pm, right? Places won't close, right? Or am I dreaming?

Anyone Ski in Castle Rock?

Hi, I'm dumb. I see all of this snow and am wondering if anyone has ever taken some rock skis out anywhere in Castle Rock? I know it isn't very reasonable, but I figured it might be fun to try some (rocky) turns here if possible.

Phillip S. Miller Park crossed my mind. Potentially climb up the stairs and find a route down?

Lauren Boebert

Castle Rock, Highlands Ranch, Douglas County

They DESERVE the absolute clown, Lauren Boebert. She's perfect for the absolute joke that is everything South of Arapahoe Road.
