Winter Wonderland ConcertJesse Garland | Sunday, FEB 13 2-4 pm
Updated location! Bohn Park
The Town of Lyons will be hosting Jesse Garland with live music in Bohn Park on Sunday, February 13, from 2 - 4 pm.
Thanks for the generous support from the Lyons Community Foundation for the winter concert series. The event is outside and we encourage folks to wear a mask.
For this concert, we thought we'd move the location to Bohn Park, near the skate-boarding and playground. In a year of pivots, we're pivoting to host this near the other "skate" park in Bohn Park! Oh, and this concert is on a Sunday too!

Lyons Quarry Reclamation
Hall 2 Open Space
Aggregate Industries has begun reclamation of the Lyons Quarry at Hall 2 Open Space under a mining and reclamation permit issued by the State of Colorado’s Division of Reclamation, Mining, and Safety (DRMS). Although the property is owned by Boulder County as open space, the quarry and its subsequent reclamation requirements are under the jurisdiction of DRMS, and Aggregate Industries is solely responsible for the reclamation project and operations.
As part of the re-grading activities for the Lyons Quarry reclamation, Aggregate Industries plans to perform blasting within the quarry beginning in February. Blasting will occur intermittently for several weeks following this date. At this time, the project does not plan for any traffic impacts to Colorado Highway 7. The project is separate from the Colorado State Highway 7 construction.
