COVID-19 UPDATE for Tuesday, September 29, 2020 |
The Colorado River Indian Tribes are committed
to combating the spread of the 2019 novel coronavirus (COVID-19) on the
Colorado River Indian Reservation. Extensive efforts have been made in
an attempt to slow the spread of this rapidly growing disease. The
Tribal Council has diligently contemplated all enacted actions and
continues to develop future protocol in an attempt to restrict access to
our community from recreational visitors and impose action necessary to
keep people in their homes. The following are links to the stay at
home orders issued by the Colorado River Indian Tribes, AZ, CA and NV.
We direct you to follow the respective orders of your current place of
residence and STAY AT HOME except for essential needs as described in
these orders. Do not come to the Colorado River Indian Reservation
to visit your seasonal residence or for purposes of recreation while
these stay at home orders are in effect. We must all do our part
to slow the spread of this rapidly spreading disease. Thank you
and be safe.
