Donald Ciancio II

Don is strong a leader who is resolute about excellence, both in his personal expectations and those of the district. His business experience has been key in the development and management of the District's impressive portfolio which includes Water World and the Hyland Hills Golf Course. He is an active advocate for youth, involved in raising funds to provide recreational opportunities to kids regardless of their family's ability to pay, and the Be-A-Fish program which, to date, has taught more than 8,000 kids how to swim. He volunteers with the Have A Heart organization and selflessly supports several golf tournaments that raise funds for a number of causes. Don has also been instrumental in several mutually beneficial partnerships and collaborations, including Adams County and the City of Westminster

Sarah Heil

Using her expertise, Ms. Heil and the Board at Hyland Hills refunded general obligation bonds which saved the district's taxpayers almost $500,000 over the next 12 years. She is hard-working, well-liked, and a thoughtful contributor to the district's Board. As co-chair for the silent auction fundraises, she has helped to generate thousands of dollars of scholarships for the youth who have no means to pay for recreation activities. Her efforts have also made a significant contribution to the Be-A-Fish program which has been recognized for its successful collaboration with local school district.
