Event Date: 
Friday, January 13, 2023 - 6:00pm to 7:30pm

The Town of Minturn Annual Christmas Tree Bonfire will take place on Friday, January 13th, from 6-7:30pm at upper Little Beach Park. The Town will be providing hot cocoa and supplies for s'mores.  In additional to the main bonfire, a smaller (kids) bonfire will be available for s'mores roasting.  ERFPD will be on hand to supervise the fire.  

Regarding tree dropoff - You may start dropping off trees at upper Little Beach Park anytime (you will see a small pile already started, just outside the parking area gate above the amphitheater). You may dropoff from now until the bonfire on the 13th.

Regarding pickups - Our Public Works team will be picking up trees where possible, based on need - the week of January 9th. If you can drop off your tree, please do. If you cannot (seniors or those who need assistance), we will pick it up. However, due to snow plowing demands and due to being short-staffed (Public Works is currently at half-staff due to injuries), we are asking that residents try to drop off their trees at the bonfire location vs. having them picked up.

Pickups will occur through Friday morning the 13th (reminder that trees MUST be curbside to be picked up). 

Any questions, please contact Cindy Krieg (970-445-2415, events@minturn.org).
