Gov. Polis Statement On Vail Resorts Suspension of Operations

DENVER - Governor Jared Polis released the following statement after Vail Resorts announced they would be suspending operations at their resorts beginning March 15 until March 22 in response to COVID-19 (coronavirus). 

“Colorado is strong and we will get through this together. The safety and health of our most vulnerable and of our communities is our top priority. I commend Vail Resorts for taking this difficult, responsible step and urge other mountains and resorts to do the same. Coloradans and our business community must continue to rise to meet the demand of these challenging times and everyone must do their part in stopping the spread of this virus. The slopes will still be there when this is all over.”
