As the community of Silverthorne continues to grow, as does the need for child care in the northern end of Summit County. Silverthorne and Summit County officials recognized the need for supplementary child care and partnered to build a new center in the Smith Ranch Neighborhood. Wold Architects and Engineers was engaged to design the space to provide both the child care and the learning spaces that are needed for the youngest leaner's in the community.
The facility will accommodate 65 kids and has two infant, toddler, and Pre-K spaces and also includes a multi-purpose room, a kitchen, and administrative areas. The project is being overseen by a group of stakeholders, including county and town staff and officials, Early Childhood Options leaders, and the director of the Timberline Learning Center in Breckenridge.
