Watch: BernCo Beat: Second Street & Rio Bravo Closure

Infrastructure improvements are underway at Second Street and Rio Bravo in the South Valley to create a smoother, safer route for everyone—drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians. The intersection will be closed June 18–22. Use the detour via Second Street to Woodward and follow posted signs. All you need to know in this episode of the BernCo Beat.

Watch: Evening in Paradise 2025

Evening in Paradise is back!
Join us Saturday, June 7, at Paradise Hills Park starting at 4 p.m. for one of the biggest events of the year. We’ve got fun for the whole family, and we're closing the night out with a showing of Moana 2.

Come help us celebrate our community, our neighbors, and our families.

If you'd like to learn more about these pups or other animals available for adoption, please email ascoutreach@bernco.gov

The South Valley Youth Initiative (SVYI) Event Series is a free, family-friendly monthly event held at Rio Bravo Park through October. With support from Commissioner Frank Baca and the Center of Southwest Culture, SVYI brings the community together to celebrate youth, wellness, literacy, and entrepreneurship. Each event features live music, art, local vendors, and hands-on activities that support mental and physical well-being.
