The Ranch Youth and Community Arena Updates

Since August 2022, construction crews have been hard at work transforming an uneven dirt parking lot into a beautiful new arena for the Larimer County. The team has been working on the interior of the building, and crews are wrapping up construction of the new arena. The Community Arena is expected to celebrate an official opening in March 2024.
