Arapahoe County issued the following announcement on June 18.

Arapahoe County Commissioner Bill Holen, a licensed pilot, recently flew across the state with El Paso County Commissioner Stan VanderWerf to deliver about 500 pounds of much-needed personal protective equipment (PPE) and other medical and cleaning supplies to two hospitals in Grand Junction. 

The two commissioners volunteered to make the delivery to demonstrate bipartisan support for the medical workers who have been fighting the COVID-19 pandemic over the past several months. "People working together, regardless of their political differences, are the only antidote to the coronavirus that is currently available," Holen said. "We must all cooperate with each other and do whatever we can to stop it."
