A few hours of yard work can make a lasting difference for an older neighbor. 🍂

Join us for fall Dougnad at 8:30 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 24. Volunteers will help older adults in Castle Rock, Castle Pines, Highlands Ranch, Lone Tree and Parker with projects such as pulling weeds, pruning plants, planting flowers and raking leaves.

The morning will begin with a pancake breakfast celebration at The Lone Tree Hub, where volunteers will receive their assignments and tools.

Want to lend a hand—or could you use one? Individuals, families and groups can sign up to volunteer, while residents age 60 or older can request yardwork assistance.

A remarkable milestone in service to Douglas County’s older adults!

This week, Commissioners honored Aging Resources of Douglas County volunteer Mike Grammes for nearly a decade of dedicated service. Mike has contributed more than 3,000 volunteer hours—providing companionship, helping with household tasks and errands, and ensuring older adults stay connected.

He also recently completed his 2,000th drive for the organization, helping clients get where they need to go while maintaining their independence.

Thank you, Mike, for the difference you continue to make in our community!

Did you know older adults are one of Douglas County’s fastest-growing populations? That’s why Commissioners continue to invest in the resources and programs needed to help older adults remain independent, connected and secure later in life.

This week, Commissioners awarded $634,904 through the County’s Older Adult Initiative for projects that address priorities identified by our older adult community. That includes housing, transportation, in-home services, and access to information and resources.

🚨 Consumer Alert: Don't be fooled by a viral online video claiming there's a new federal property tax relief form for seniors. The video tells homeowners to ask their county assessor for a "Senior Homeowner Tax Review Request."

❌ It's fake.

There is no federal law, no federal property tax relief program and no federal form by that name.

The Douglas County Assessor's Office presents the facts here: https://www.douglasco.gov/consumer-alert-viral-video-promotes-fake-federal-property-tax-form/

If you have questions about legitimate Colorado property tax relief programs, contact the Douglas County Assessor's Office directly before sharing personal information or paying anyone for assistance.
