“Up At Arapahoe” New hiking biking trailOur newest summer trail, “Up At Arapahoe”, is open. We have completed the first portion from Black Mountain Lodge uphill to the bottom of Jamie’s Face. The trail will be for two-way hiking and uphill biking.
Reporting Workplace Injuries – It is absolutely critical that all workplace injuries are reported to an employee’s supervisor, the Risk Manager or Human Resources immediately. It is every supervisor’s responsibility to immediately report these injuries to the Risk Manager or Human Resources. Delays not only cause headaches, but can lead to a denial of benefits which is bad for everyone.
Your Health Insurance Open Enrollment – Open enrollment is available thru September 25, 2023. Open enrollment is the one time of year eligible employees can make changes to benefits like medical and dental insurance. If you miss this, other than a qualifying event, you will have to wait until next open enrollment to make any changes.
