I’m a 50ish year all woman looking for some help to get back into shape. I’m like to work out with someone three days a week and stay within the $500 and under range for training/group workouts. Thoughts or suggestions you can share?

Hi. I'm new to the area and have a Toyota RAV4. Any car wash places (drive-thru) you recommend to use (or avoid) are helpful. Thanks.

Colorado office seekers routinely make their stances known on issues like the economy, taxes, energy development and gun control. But as more people struggle with mental health challenges, state candidates should let voters know how they stand on mental health policy, too.

Hi! I wanted to share an event happening next month in Arvada! It’s a book swap and essentially you buy a ticket for $5 (I’m not making money off of this, ps. I’m 100% a volunteer that just loves books and drinks. It’s used for operating expenses and buying stickers and bookmarks and such to give away!) and bring at least one but as many books as you’d like, and then you swap and can take home up to 4 new-to-you books. Any extras left at the end of the night are donated to area little free libraries. If you want to come, this is the first in Arvada and we plan on many more in the future. Hope to see you there :)

Also, 10/10 recommend Fade It Golf & Social club, regardless of if you want to come to it for our book swap or not. It has an awesome atmosphere and the owners are so kind and fabulous.

If I found an alligator snapping turtle in Colorado, would I be able to keep it? There are numerous conflicting articles on Google. A reptile store employee stated it's illegal to keep one but articles on Google say otherwise.

Does anyone know the real answer?

Anyone know of any deals or good place to get a set of tires for my Mazda sedan? Doesn't have to be strictly Arvada but general area

Hi all, I am new to the neighborhood and trying to figure out where to trick or treat with my toddlers. I live in the lake arbor townhomes area. I grew up in an apartment building so house to house trick or treating is new to me and anxiety inducing! Tia!

Hi Guys, Just sharing our community led lineup in case anyone is looking for something fun to do this week.

Anyone have recommendations for good sprinkler blowouts in Arvada? Woody's is charging $120, and I'd rather find something cheaper if possible

Get out and enjoy!

It says temporarily closed online. Is this going to turn into permanently closed?

Need someone that will help me sell stuff from our storage unit. I'm here emptying it out through the weekend.

If you have a good honest mechanic, then you know how much of a bummer it is when you have to move away from them 🙃 since moving, we don’t have someone we know and trust, Midas mentioned a few big things that need replacing and I’m looking for a second opinion on the timing of those. Also, just looking for a new mechanic! Thanks!

When we first moved here I remember seeing something about it on the Arvada gov website but now I can’t find it. Am I crazy? Is there a time or place for yard waste drop off or pickup?

I also haven’t been able to find self service garbage or recycling drop off for when you have more than your bin. Do we have this?

Thanks!

Looking to rent a storage unit for a few months. Any recommendations on which ones are affordable, honest, and safe? Any to avoid? TIA.

My fiancé and I are looking for a house-cleaner & home-organizer, ideally 1 person that could fill both roles, but would be ok with 2 people, one for each role.

We've never had one and I'm nervous about trusting someone; particularly around security with precious belongings (not like we have a ton lol). If not in this group, where does one go to get a local, trusted recommendation?
