Monday, 2/11/08 @5:00: Park County has declared a disaster and emergency due to the weather conditions and the constant high winds. We are getting additional resources into the county to assist with removing snow and getting citizens out of blocked residences. This operation will take some time. In the event of an emergency, citizens should continue to call 911. Otherwise, we have set up a phone bank for people with needs at (719) 836-. This number will have someone available from 8am to 6pm each day.

A shelter has been opened for displaced citizens this evening at the South Park Recreation Center in Fairplay.
