Dreaming of Plants & Flowers
|
The Yampa River Botanic Park is receiving a donation of 800 tiny plants from plant propagation company Proven Winners! The Botanic Park is partnering with SOROCO High School’s horticulture program to grow them in their heated greenhouse. This spring the
horticulture
students will sell half of the plants in their plant sale fundraiser and the Botanic Park will plant the other half in the Annuals Garden.

New Year, New Pet Licenses
|
All pets located in Steamboat Springs and within Routt County are required by law to be licensed annually. It's required that all dogs and cats wear the current license on their collar or harness. The annual deadline has passed, and the City reminds owners who have not secured 2020 licenses to do so immediately. Licenses can be bought at the Routt County Humane Society, or at any local veterinarian office.
