Council approves Roar special-event permit for April 26 with wristband, alcohol-controls
Summary
The council approved a special-event permit for ALF BPOE Lodge 1907 for 'Roar' on April 26 at Rio Blanco County Columbine Park (1 p.m.–11:59 p.m.); staff described wristband and controlled-alcohol entrance plans and the council emphasized compliance with liquor licensing and county notification.
The council approved a special-event permit for ALF BPOE Lodge 1907 to host "Roar" April 26, 2025, at Rio Blanco County Columbine Park from 1:00 p.m. to 11:59 p.m.
An event representative described plans to set up adjacent to the stands, use controlled entrances with signage and implement wristbands to verify age for alcohol service. "We're actually gonna do wristbands this year... and that's all we're technically doing with the Elks with the event," the representative said. Council members urged organizers to dot the i's and cross the t's on special-liquor licensing and to make it a safe, fun event.
A motion to approve the permit was made and seconded; the chair called for a voice vote and announced the motion carried. Council members asked staff to notify the county administrator of the date change; the event's date had been shortened from an earlier multi-day window to April 26. No conditions beyond standard licensing compliance were recorded in the transcript.
