"In the presence of nature, a wild delight runs through the man, in spite of real sorrows." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
The last few weeks have been immensely difficult for so many of us throughout Grand County. We have lost homes, treasured items, and even friends and loved ones. Through it all, the community has risen and come together to prove how strong Grand County truly is. This is a time to be together, but not in the way we planned when we structured our annual event.
The effects of the East Troublesome Fire on our community are indescribable. And, yet, the work of firefighters, first responders, the Sheriff's office, support teams, local volunteers and the well wishes of folks near and far have been a comfort. We have a long road ahead, but we are so proud of the strength and resilience of our Grand County community.
