Find Us at These Fall Events in Castle Rock, from Halloween Haunts to Holiday Happenings.

As a crispness begins to fill the morning and evening air and the mountain aspens start to turn, Veterinary Specialists of the Rockies is ramping up for a series of fall events in Castle Rock! We believe in not only caring for our beloved animal companions within the confines of our hospital but also extending our paws and hearts to the Castle Rock community we hold dear. From a giant pumpkin patch to the lighting of a giant star, look for us at these seasonal family favorites!


Grab some dinner and join the fun at Food Truck Frenzy.

Catch up with neighbors at this free Meadows Neighborhood event with live music from Eric Golden and, of course, lots of food truck options for your dining pleasure! Admission into the event is free. Cost for food truck items vary. Take advantage of trolley rides to and from Paintbrush Park. For more information check the Meadows Neighborhood Community events website and Facebook page.

We’re back as a sponsor for this Castle Rock fall favorite!

Bring the whole family to celebrate the change of seasons at this Meadow’s neighborhood fall tradition on Saturday, October 14 from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Complete with music, inflatables, hayrides, games, crafts, trick-or-treating, concessions, a costume parade (which officially kicks off the event at 1:15), and a giant pumpkin patch (of course!), it’s one of the area’s best fall festivals. Plus, be sure to show off your costumes at the Veterinary Specialists of the Rockies sponsor tent for giveaways, treats for people and pets, and an extra helping of Halloween cheer.

Entry into the event is free for all. Rides are free for Meadows residents and $5 for non-residents. Residents, remember your key fob to get one FREE pumpkin per household.

We’re a Holiday in the Meadows Platinum Sponsor!

Santa and Mrs. Claus invite you to attend the annual Holiday in the Meadows event on Saturday, December 2nd from 10:00 to 3:00 PM. This community event will feature Santa and Mrs. Claus along with a photographer to take family pictures, holiday characters, carolers, crafts, trolley rides, yummy holiday treats, coffee, hot chocolate, and more!

Holiday in The Meadows is one of the most popular events in the neighborhood, and parking can be a bit tight at The Grange. If you can’t find a spot at The Grange, don’t let that ruin your holiday spirit. There’s plenty of parking at Paintbrush Park, where you can hitch a free ride to The Grange on the town trolley! The trolley will be running continuously throughout the event until 1 pm.

For more information check the Meadows Neighborhood Community events website  and Facebook page.
