Just east of Sable Altura Chambers, a 250-acre natural area full of open space and wooded groves.“Star K Ranch is a wonderful nature oasis in the middle of a pretty industrial area, which makes it very special,” says Joy Thompson, Natural Resources Supervisor for the City of Aurora’s Open Space and Natural Resources division. “For people who live in the nearby neighborhoods, it’s a way to get away from the city to a natural place that’s within walking distance.” The ranch once belonged to Virgil “Pop” Stark before it became a public recreation area. “When Pop lived in the house, he had a wood sign over the space between the house and the garage that read, ‘This place was built for me and my friends,’” Thompson says. “We now think of Star K Ranch as a place for us and all of our friends in Aurora who love nature and wildlife.”
