As wildfires and other climate related natural disasters become more frequent and severe, how can Ouray County prepare and adapt to this new reality? This panel discussion will bring together key voices from local government, wildfire management, and state insurance policy to provide a comprehensive look at how our region, and specifically how Ouray County is addressing this growing threat of wildfires.

Following a brief film viewing about the Log Hill Mesa project, this panel will address the evolving landscape of wildfire-related insurance challenges in Colorado, strategic mitigation planning at the homeowner and community levels, and the role of local government in coordinating preparedness and response.

The panelists bring a wealth of expertise and unique perspectives to the conversation:

Aaron Johnson
Chief Operating Officer, West Region Wildfire Council

Jake Niece
Board of County Commissioner, Ouray County

Jason D. Lapham
Deputy Commissioner for Property and Casualty Insurance, Colorado Division of Insurance

The event will be moderated by Tim Pinnow, Executive Director of the West Region Wildfire Council.

The purpose of this class is to become more attuned to yourself through music transforming itself into movement in your body. There is no right or wrong way to move here, just what feels right to you. This class takes mindfulness to a different level, allowing energy to flow through you and identifying what feels good. Physical movement can help alleviate stress, as well as emotional and physical pains.

Clean, gently used, new coats collected and distributed to children and adults in need.

Hello all you lovers of antiques and a grand time, Picking at the Pea is tumbling into town again, Saturday, Oct. 11th. Come see what gems have blown into Pea Green. Check out our numerous vendors, great homemade food and our heart tugging displays. This year we are capturing a time in history when the sky was a cloud of dust, farms became tumbleweed deserts, and whatever people had left, fit on the top of their cars. We take homage to these folks that mended their broken lives and literally moved on to greener pastures. We celebrate the enduring, unbreakable American spirit! And of course, always expect the unexpected!
