CDOT The Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) will be rotomilling and paving State Highway 91 between Copper Mountain and Leadville this summer. Work will begin June 1st, at the earliest, north of Leadville between mileposts 0 and 12. This work, which will be completed in October 2011, will involve single-lane, alternating traffic Monday through Thursday, from 7 AM to 7 PM, and on Fridays from 7 AM to noon. Travel delays may be up to 15 minutes, depending upon traffic volumes. Further information, including a start date, will be posted later this month. The work on the north side of Fremont Pass is expected to begin in early July, following the Independence Day weekend, and continue through November 2011. Work hours are tentative at this point but drivers should anticipate traffic stops up to 20 minutes during daylight hours, Monday through Thursday, and until 2 p.m. on Fridays. Improvements include widening the shoulders at various locations between Copper Mountain and the top of Fremont Pass (Climax). CDOT will maintain a flexible work schedule, as necessary, to accommodate the various recreational events that take place in Summit and Lake counties during the summer.

Judy Green This year, for the first time, CMC is having an “early orientation” on June 15 and 16 for new CMC students and their families. In order to encourage them to come into your place of business, the college has recently completed the attached 4 versions, which we will print on card stock and you may use as window signs. If you plan to display the sign, please let me know which version you would like: Activity, Dining, Historical or Shopping. In addition, there is a mini logo that you may want to start dropping into your print ads or other print materials. Please put the window cards where appropriate prior to the June 15 arrival, but we would like you to leave them up indefinitely, or as long as you plan to offer something special to CMC students and families. It could be something as simple as a coupon for money off a future purchase, or an on-the-spot discount. Or a “Starving Student Special Section” stocked with clearance items. CMC will put miniature versions of the 4 signs and mini logo in the packets to students attending Early Orientation, in order to make them aware of the campaign, and so they will look for the window cards when they are out and about. Please RVSP with the version you want, and how many, and we will get them printed and out to you prior to June 15. “
