Four 4th of July 5Ks to Lace Up For Around Fort Collins
The Summer of 2021 is going to fly by fast. In 2020, everyone was stuck at home, and the summer seemed so long. That s not the case this year.
Get outside and get some sunshine and some exercise with a 5K. 5Ks are just over three miles long. Not very far when it really comes down to it, right? You don t even have to run. You can do a light-jog, or even just walk for those three miles.
It s always a lot of fun when you get a group, which is allowed this year, and do one together. With most 5Ks, everybody gets a great finisher award of some sort, and the swag bags usually have great door prizes.

King Soopers will redesign and renovate its southside Boulder store with a goal to reopen in late fall, the company’s corporate affairs manager, Jessica Trowbridge, announced in a news conference Wednesday.

Boulder King Soopers to renovate following mass shooting
BOULDER, Colo. (KRDO) King Soopers announced Wednesday plans to rebuild the Table Mesa location in Boulder, where a gunman opened fire, killing ten people on March 22.
The grocery store chain will make a substantial investment to completely renovate both the interior and exterior of the store. A partnership with the City of Boulder will help accelerate the rebuilding process to reopen in late fall.
“Our plan to reopen is a testament to the resilience of our associates and the Boulder community. We continue to mourn those who were lost and stand with the other victims of this senseless tragedy. We are committed to supporting our associates who remain on paid emergency leave until June 19 and will be here for the community as we continue the long healing process,” said Steve Burnham, President of King Soopers/City Market. “Our goal is to support one another and grieve and heal together.”
