Boulder's Tube to Work Day is set to kick off Friday morning after a string of deaths in Boulder creek and dozens of water-related accidents throughout the state.
is going down Friday, July 14, just days after Boulder Creek claimed the life of a woman who accidentally fell in, and mere weeks after two others were killed — including a nine-year-old boy — while trying to navigate the rough and rowdy waters.
At that point, it was Boulder's fifth water rescue in two weeks, and the city put out a statement saying,"First responders urge community members to recreate safely in the city, especially around water, which can be running stronger, deeper, and colder than it looks." Water-flow levels in Boulder Creek are currently not high enough to warrant the cancellation or delay of the quirky Tube to Work Day event, according to organizers and the Boulder County Sheriff's Office.
Tube to Work Day organizers have an even stricter threshold for water-flow levels: Spokesperson Lance Pangigutti says the safety range is 125 to 250 CFS.
