Start with our Meet Ups These monthly meetups are designed just for newcomers and returners. You’ll meet other residents and learn about the community. Plus, our friendly hosts can connect you with local groups that match your interests.
While many events are drop-in friendly, some activities have limited space. Each event listing will clearly show if registration is needed and how to sign up. For Meet Ups, we appreciate a quick RSVP so we can plan for dinner.
Most of our community events are family-friendly, and event listings always indicate if they’re good for kids. Meet Ups welcome the whole family – we’d love to help your children connect with others their age in the community.
Community events, business opportunities, local stories, trail updates– keep your finger on the pulse of the Range. Sign up for our newsletter for regular updates and event invitations.
