With summer fast approaching and our June classes scheduled, I want to take the opportunity to thank you for your interest and support in our programs over the years. After careful consideration, Front Range Community College has made the difficult decision to close the Continuing Education departments at the Boulder County and Westminster campuses, and Brighton Center. These locations will offer their final set of courses in personal enrichment and professional development during the month of June. On behalf of all the staff and instructors at the Boulder County and Westminster campuses, and Brighton Center, we want to thank you for the opportunity to serve the community, and are grateful for your patronage and support through the years.
