Join us Friday, September 13 from 1pm-3pm for the Grand Opening of The L.A.N.E. The unique ribbon cutting will take place at 1:15pm.

Exciting things are happening at The L.A.N.E. (Little Arrowhead Nature Explore) at Arrowhead Ranch and we are so excited for it to open for public use. Finishing touches are being added and grass is growing in beautifully. The components of this outdoor education space were specifically curated to encourage the mental and physical development of our community's children. 

The L.A.N.E. is not your typical "playground" but an outdoor space to learn, explore, and connect with nature. This project is a result of our Kindergarten Readiness workgroup collaborating to provide an outdoor space for the children of our community to explore their creativity and imagination while building foundational skills necessary for a strong start to their education journey. Research has shown a direct link between these outdoor exploration opportunities and the increased development of problem-solving skills, ingenuity, mental and physical well-being, and environmental stewardship.
 
The target age for the space is 0-5 years old but the area is designed to be enjoyed by children of all ages, including adults! The space will be free for the public to enjoy and open for groups to reserve for field trips and other educational opportunities.
