Winter Wonderland Concerts

Next Concert Saturday, February 25

Town staff is working with our talented local musicians to host a short series of Winter Wonderland Concerts for the community. The next concert is with Dechen Hawk on Saturday, February 25th, from 2- 4 pm.

At this time, we aren’t sure if it will be in LaVern Johnson Park or Bohn Park, which will depend on the weather. If the cold temps continue and we have ice skating, LaVern Johnson Park sounds delightful. But if it warms up quickly and is more spring like, we will pivot to Bohn Park.

Don’t worry Lyons, there will be hot cocoa, live music and winter festivities for the whole family. We will let you know the location via email and our social channels!
The town website also has the hours for recreational skating and hockey skating along with the times the skate rentals will be open. Typically rentals are available on weekends.

Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza

Bird Flu

Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI aka bird flu) continues to move through bird populations along the Front Range, including Lyons and Boulder County.

Although rare, some HPAI strains can infect people so it is important to protect yourself. Do not handle sick or dead birds and keep your distance from wildlife. If you find three or more dead wild birds in a specific area within a two week period OR if you see live birds showing clinical signs of disease, please contact the local Colorado Parks and Wildlife office.
