Summit County to Move to

Level Red,

Friday, November 20th, 5:00 p.m.

Cases in Summit County, Colorado and across the US are spiking. Unfortunately this means additional restrictions are being put in place in hopes of reducing the spread. This week, Governor Jered Polis outlined a revised "dial." This revision changes the Level Red and adds in Level Purple. The goal and hope is to avoid another shut down. Due to the current positivity rate and number of cases in Summit County, including the Town of Blue River, the County is being moved to Level Red.

Now more than ever, it is necessary to follow these guidelines and work to bring the numbers back down and save our season, businesses and lives. Below are the restrictions that take effect Friday, November 20th, 5:00 p.m. Please note that restaurant restrictions will not take effect until Sunday, 5:00 p.m.
