Good morning. This is Melanie Asmar with Chalkbeat Colorado.

Heads-up: Chalkbeat will be closed Friday in observance of the Fourth of July holiday, so you won't see us in your inbox tomorrow morning. We'll be back next week! If you have feedback or story ideas for us in the meantime, reply to this email to reach the bureau.

And as always, you can reach us at [email protected].
