Your Town Academy

Your Town Academy is an eight-week class designed to provide Castle Rock residents and business owners a broad formal education on their Town government.

The program's purpose is: To increase governmental transparency by increasing community awareness about Town operations, with a hope of improving understanding of service levels.

The program consists of eight 2.5-hour sessions, plus a graduation ceremony at a Town Council meeting.

Generally, each of the Town's six major departments - Development Services, Fire and Rescue, Parks and Recreation, Police, Public Works/Streets and Utilities/Water - host an evening of information and interactive demonstrations regarding their service areas.
