COVID-19 Update

The City of Aspen is monitoring the COVID-19 situation closely in partnership with Pitkin County Public Health. Our team is actively contacting all users and organization with relevant information related to the Aspen Recreation Department operations.

In an effort to maintain some sense of normalcy during these unprecedented times, our staff is working on ways to promote fun and healthy ways to stay connected. We have been posting workouts, activities and nutritional recipes on our website. Read the memo below - or click on the Fun Activities for Kids and Adults under "What's Happening" -- to the right!
