Silver Key Announces North Expansion and Landmark Community Partnership

COLORADO SPRINGS, CO— Silver Key has announced exploratory plans for a major expansion in the Tri-Lakes region, made possible through significant community partnerships and a transformational land donation.

 

An Intergenerational Hub
The future Silver Key Community Center will serve as an intergenerational hub designed to connect community elders, youth, and residents from the broader Tri-Lakes regions in a shared space for community wellness, learning, and celebration.

Monument Community Presbyterian Church Provides Interim Space
The organization expressed deep appreciation to Monument Community Presbyterian Church, Pastor John, and the congregation for opening their doors to host the current Silve Key Tri-Lakes Activity Center. The Church enables Silver Key to continue serving the community with current and expanded service offerings while exploring the feasibility of a permanent facility.

Classic Homes Pledges to Donate Land for Iconic Community Facility
A pivotal step in the project came when Classic Homes pledged to donate a 2.030-acre parcel—prime land adjacent to Jackson Creek Parkway in the Monument Junction community — as the future site of the Silver Key Community Center. Plans for the center include lifelong learning opportunities for older adults, youth-focused mentorship programs, and community events ranging from performances to educational workshops.

Momentum for the project is already underway, with $100,000 raised in early gifts. The donated land adds substantial value to the effort, though it is not included in the estimated $13–$17 million construction budget. The capital campaign goal ranges from $12.43 million, the minimum needed to open, to $17.04 million for the fully realized vision.

Early Partners in the Project
In addition to Classic Homes and Monument Community Presbyterian Church, early partners in the project include the Town of Monument for community collaboration, Nunn Construction for in-kind cost modeling, CU Denver for technical assistance in architectural design, Monumental Impact as a youth mentoring partner, among many others.

 

Once complete, the Silver Key Community Center is expected to become an iconic cornerstone of the community, serving as a gathering place that fosters connections between generations and strengthens the fabric of the community.
