May was a busy month of travel for the MRD 50+ Program. We spent the day at the Grand Valley Highlander Games in Grand Junction, we toured the Mighty Mini Horse Therapy farm and Flying Iron Ranch Alpacas, we hiked the Palisade Rim Trail and we toured with Palisade artists Lyle Nichols (who doesn't normally do tours) and Steve Kentz. We take trips that are recreational, cultural and/or educational in nature. We hope you will join us on our next 50+ Adventure! Click the link for photos.

Focus on our Custodial Division!
Have you ever wondered why our Recreation Center still looks brand new? The floors are shiny and clean, all of the surfaces sparkle, and the carpets are spotless. Thanks to our dedicated Custodial Crew, we have facilities that our community can be proud of. This crew of 7 hard working individuals works day and night to ensure our facilities remain clean and aesthetically pleasing. This sometimes back breaking work includes; resurfacing floors, cleaning the track surface, cleaning all restrooms and cabanas, cleaning all surfaces and so much more. Part of the crew was involved in a 10 week deep cleaning of the entire CRC while it was closed early this year. A couple team members have a "dinner club" where they will bring food to their evening shift and share with anyone working. The next time you see; Tammy, Tim, Jimette, Cade, Eli, Brysen or Jessica, please tell them "thank you" for the fine job they do!

Why we are the "SAFEST PLACE TO PLAY"?
Having visited the CRC a handful of times in November and December, I was consistently impressed by your COVID policies and protocol. From check-in, to traffic flow, to spacing and cleanliness of the equipment, bathrooms and other spaces, I always felt safe and comfortable. Especially impressive was how you have a staff member dedicated to cleaning machines after members are finished using them. I also appreciated the zero-tolerance mask policy.
As a public health department employee, I am familiar with the huge amount of challenges and changes faced by our communities during the pandemic. The CRC has met these challenges with flying colors, and you and your staff should be proud of all you have accomplished in your provision of a healthy, welcoming environment in which people can get the physical and social stimulation we so desperately need right now.
Thanks again to you and your team for all your hard work. It does not go unnoticed.
