LAST CALL: Citing data indicating an uptick in coronavirus cases among the younger population — ages 20-29 — Gov. Jared Polis issued an executive order on Tuesday requiring establishments to stop alcohol sales at 10 p.m. each day, a four hour bump from the traditional last call at 2 a.m. Polis has since amended the order after business owners' voice concerns. THE EYE OF THE TIGER played in my high school gym every spirit week during our Friday morning assemblies. I still remember that feeling as a senior walking into the gym for our final assembly with that song playing and then breaking out into a choreographed routine. While "Eye Of the Tiger" wasn't my favorite song, I grew to appreciate it and associate it with my school spirit. Music has a way of helping me recall moments in my life, even if I wasn't born when the song originally came out. Does music do that for you, too? On July 24, 1982, "Eye Of The Tiger" by Survivor from the "Rocky III" soundtrack started a 6-week run at No. 1 on the U.S. charts. PUT OUT THAT FIRE: With moisture content in trees and vegetation low because of ongoing drought conditions, it only takes one stray ember being blown by the wind to ignite a wildland fire that destroys resources and brings out fire crews, who face danger. Don't forget about packing out your trash and staying on designated roadways and trails.   INVEST IN YOUR LOCAL JOURNALISM Just $1.99 per week - Become a member of your community today.
