Council awards three fourth‑quarter community grants totaling $3,000
Summary
Castle Rock awarded $1,000 each to the Rotary Satellite Club of Castle Pines for provider training, Douglas County After Prom to support an alcohol‑free event (expecting ~250 students) and Castle View High School TSA to help students attend competitions; council approved the $3,000 total by unanimous roll call.
Castle Rock Town Council approved three fourth‑quarter awards from the Council Community Grant Program, allocating $1,000 to each of the eligible applicants under the council’s current quarterly budget.
Trish Mueller, presenting the program, said the council’s community grant fund had $4,000 available for the quarter after an earlier supplemental appropriation and staff had vetted three eligible applicants: the Rotary Satellite Club of Castle Pines (requesting $1,000 for a Boston Children’s Hospital training program to help primary care providers screen and treat youth ages 6–18), Douglas County After Prom (requesting $1,000 to support an alcohol‑free event expected to draw about 250 students on May 2), and the Castle View High School Technology Student Association (requesting $1,000 to offset competition costs that have risen this year).
Council discussion touched on applicant eligibility, program scope and whether to increase individual awards; members ultimately moved to stick with the budgeted $1,000 per applicant and the motion passed unanimously by roll call.
Council approved awards of $1,000 each to the Rotary Satellite Club of Castle Pines, Douglas County After Prom and Castle View High School TSA.
