📰 News we're reading
• DougCo residents seek to expand commissioners from 3 to 5 (castlerocknewspress.net) — Castle Rock residents could gain their own Douglas County commissioner if a citizen petition to expand the board from three to five members makes the November ballot. Supporters argue more districts would better represent fast-growing areas like Castle Rock and Highlands Ranch, while current commissioners debate whether district-only or hybrid at-large seats would best protect countywide interests and avoid gridlock. 
• Experience the taste of summer at the 2026 Colorado Farm-to-Table Brunch (einpresswire.com) — Castle Rock residents can reserve tickets now for the Colorado Farm-to-Table Brunch at the Douglas County Fairgrounds on Sunday, July 26, featuring chef-prepared local foods, live music, and artisan vendors. Your ticket also includes admission to the wider Douglas County Fair & Rodeo, with free entertainment, rides, and exhibits running July 24 through August 2.
