Suicide prevention training for community members. safeTALK helps to prepare people to identify persons with thoughts of suicide and connect them to suicide first-aid resources. During this class you will learn to: notice and respond to situations where thoughts of suicide may be present, provide practical help, act quickly to connect the person to trained resources, and contribute to building a safe community.
Gunnison Valley is also host to several beloved annual events. A classic winter event is The Alley Loop, a Nordic ski race that doubles as a costume contest. In fall, Mt. Crested Butte hosts the famous Chili and Beer Festival. Every summer in Gunnison, a crowd gathers to watch America’s fourth-oldest rodeo, Cattlemen’s Days. There are also festivals in Crested Butte that celebrate local art, music, wildflowers, and more. Attending an annual event is a good way to connect with the culture of the Gunnison Valley. You might even create a new tradition for you and your family and friends!
