IMPORTANT DATES TO REMEMBER:

Another earthquake has been recorded in western Colorado, bringing the count to five in western Colorado over the past 30 days, and 28 for Colorado since the start of the year.

Colorado experienced a mix of continued improving drought conditions for the north central part of the state, while abnormally dry conditions expanded in western Colorado.

Moderate drought that, one week ago, had impacted portions of eight counties, has receded to only northeast Park county thanks to recent rain and snow storms.

The Lamar Community College Fitness Center has recently expanded its hours to better serve its users. 

The Fitness Center will now be open Monday through Friday from 5:00am to 8:00pm and Saturday from 8:00 to 11:00am.  It will be closed on Sundays and on major holidays, and any holiday closures will be posted in advance.

The Colorado Parks and Wildlife team is preparing Lake Pueblo State Park for the unofficial start of summer on Memorial Day weekend and wants visitors to know what they can expect when they arrive.

Renovation work at the Rock Canyon Swim Beach facilities has been delayed due to a wet, stormy spring. As a result, a $500,000 project is behind schedule and the beach will not be ready by the traditional opening date of Memorial Day Weekend.
