NEDERLAND - In the wake of the devastating Caribou Village fire

that destroyed more than 20 Nederland businesses and displaced 100 employees, the

community is coming together for the “Nederland Strong Block Party for Revival & Recovery” on

Saturday, November 1, from 11 a.m. - 3 p.m.

Headlined by The Galentines, the free benefit event will take place on Big Springs Drive and will

feature live music, food trucks, beer gardens and kid-friendly activities. The event is a full-scale

community effort led by Tebo Properties with help from The Carousel of Happiness, Eldora,

Emily Perry & Indian Peaks Real Estate, Ned General Store, the Town of Nederland, Stem

Cider, Oskar Blues, and many other organizations.

The Boulder County Community Foundation will manage donations collected throughout the

event.

“It’s been incredible to see the way this community has rallied around all of us,” said Mike

McNett, owner of Ned General Store. “The Nederland Strong block party is our chance to

remind everyone that our community still stands, and to help our business owners and

employees through this disaster.”

“Caribou Village Shopping Center was more than storefronts – it was where the community met,

laughed, worked and celebrated,” said James Dixon, CEO of Tebo Properties. “We’re very

grateful to the supporting businesses and community leaders who have been instrumental in

lifting this community during dark times.”

“In times of tragedy, our first instinct is to look toward the helpers and the people rebuilding the

community,” said Tatiana Hernandez, executive director of the Community Foundation. “The

Community Foundation is honored to work with the Town of Nederland and other stakeholders

in helping to distribute these charitable contributions.”
