Since 2001, the Arvada Wheat Ridge Service Ambassadors for Youth (AWRSAY) has recognized youth who have overcome a major life obstacle or adversity. AWRSAY seeks to acknowledge these deserving youth by providing recognition to all and, in the case of high school seniors, scholarship opportunities to Red Rocks Community College. We hope that through community encouragement, support and recognition, Arvada and Wheat Ridge youth will grow to be confident members and leaders in our communities. |

Arvada Fire House #9 Tour
May 30, 2023 3:00 p.m.
Centrally located in Candelas, the station will provide excellent access and response times to the entire development. When it opens, the fire station will be staffed with an advanced life support fire engine and cross-staffed with a brush truck specifically equipped to respond to wildfires in the wildland urban interface. Additionally, the station was built with the capacity to serve this community for many years into the future. There is sufficient space in the apparatus bays to accommodate future needs for additional fire apparatus and an ambulance as the demand for services increases. The exterior of the station was designed to align with the City of Arvada’s standard design for the Candelas area, while the internal features of the building were designed to serve the many needs of a modern fire department. Those needs included training features designed into the apparatus bay, a 1,127-square-foot gym to promote fitness, eight individual bunk rooms, and numerous features to support cancer prevention, such as a decontamination corridor. Aligned with our desire to preserve the environment, the new station is also equipped with a rooftop solar system to reduce our carbon footprint and its landscape includes natural and wild grass instead of a manicured lawn to reduce water consumption. Most importantly, the location of the new fire station is based on data used to determine how we can best fulfill our vision to provide exceptional public safety services to our community. Our data modeling determined that response times to 911 calls from the new fire station will significantly improve to not only Candelas, but also to the neighborhoods of Whisper Creek and Five Parks. |

Rotary Ambassadorial Scholar - Peace Corp - NREL
Sep. 26, 2023 7:10 a.m.
In 2005, midway through a two-year assignment with the Peace Corps, Kristin Wegner Guilfoyle returned home to Illinois to attend a friend's wedding. That's when fate came striding down the aisle. At the reception, Wegner Guilfoyle was seated at a table with a judge who was a member of the Rotary Club of Joliet. Wegner Guilfoyle told the judge about her work with biosand water filters in the Dominican Republic. The next week, at the judge's invitation, she spoke to the Joliet club — and, after she returned to her Peace Corps posting, club members provided her with financial and practical support, as well as some invaluable guidance about the direction of her life. |

Join us at Food for Thought (FFT) MSU and help us pack PowerSacks for children in need. Volunteers help little ones bridge the hunger gap between the meals they receive at school and the weekend, when these meals are not available. Activities at FFT MSU take place outside, so please make sure you are dressed comfortably for both movement/lifting and the weather--layers are a good idea! Parking is available for free along the street and there is also a paid lot right across from the site. Volunteers must sign up to participate. Registration is easy: simply choose a date (or multiple dates) and job. Food for Thought is 100% volunteer-run, so we are incredibly grateful for our volunteers--thank you!! 1600 W.
