Fireworks show planned for Sunday

Holyoke Volunteer Fire Department’s annual fireworks show is Sunday, July 4, around 9:15 p.m. The fireworks will be set off in the same location as last year — near the airport just southeast of town. HVFD has donation buckets out in local businesses this week to raise money for next year’s July 4 fireworks show.

Health emergency declaration rescinded

In April 2020, the Northeast Colorado Health Department Board of Health signed a resolution declaring a local public health emergency for the special district of NCHD. During its meeting June 23, the board rescinded the resolution. “The public health emergency declaration is no longer needed for our ongoing COVID-19 pandemic response,” said director Trish McClain. The district includes Logan, Morgan, Phillips, Sedgwick, Washington and Yuma counties. While cases of COVID-19 have been declining in the district, NCHD is closely monitoring the delta variant.
