Fire Ban Now In Effect in Grand County

The Grand County Commissioners met this past Tues and implemented fire restrictions throughout Grand County.  For details about this ban and what types of fire are prohibited, check out: http://co.grand.co.us/GCHome/downlads/County_Fire_Ban_Ordinance.pdf

This does NOT mean that the 4th of July fireworks are canceled.  However, they may make that call down the road if conditions warrant.

Personal use/sale of fireworks is prohibited, no campfires (unless in designated campgrounds in pits...see link), no bonfires, no charcoal on the ground and NO SMOKING outdoors.  Actually the smoking is highly discouraged unless in a car or inside.  

Please be careful and remember the words of Smoky!  Only you can prevent forest fires.  Keep our Valley safe and beautiful!  Thanks.
