Safety Efforts in 2023

• No fatalities or serious injuries!
• City purchased ~200 life jackets for bring-your-own tubers
• Staff installed corridor “mile markers” to assist first responders in easily communicating creek locations in emergencies
• Safety video (made in partnership with Jeffco Open Space) was available and encouraged for all creek users

Proposed for 2024

• Two fire stations staffed 24/7 within the city (as of October 2023)
• Tracking all creek-related calls for service
• Reunification point for separated tubing / swimming parties at Vanover Park
• Brush clearing in rescue areas (north bank behind Gold Apartments)
