It’s Friday evening and I am sitting at my computer watching the sun go down over the beautiful Colorado Rocky Mountains. Temperature was hot today and even though many kids have started back to school, the pools were filled with fun and energy. This time of the year is always exciting at GATC because we get to see many faces who have been traveling over the summer months or spending more time outdoors. The staff at Greenwood Athletic and Tennis Club is looking forward to a great second half of the year with many exciting programs and services on the horizon. Don’t forget about the 3rd Annual Roadless Ride scheduled for October 15 and the party of the year is approaching quickly. Save the date for Mardi Gras, Saturday, November 13. It’s a guaranteed night of fun!
A special thank you to all the kids who participated in Camp Greenwood this summer. We hope you had as much fun as our counselors did! See you all next summer!
