On June 4, the Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment published updated guidelines for organized recreational sports.

On July 17, an Executive Order took effect requiring the wearing of masks in indoor public spaces.  This order mandates the wearing of masks in our in-building restrooms.

On November 13 at 5:00 PM, El Paso County will enter Safter At Home Level 3, which requires outdoor recreational sports activities to be limited to 10 players and 75 spectators.

The El Pomar Youth Sports Park is now open for recreational sport practices and games when conducted in accordance with these guidelines.
