The preparation of the 2021 Budget was a challenging task. The Coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”) made 2020 a difficult year and the affect the pandemic will have on the District’s financial performance in 2021 is uncertain at this point of the budget process. Despite significant revenue impacts in 2020 due to the initial shut downs and the continued restrictions on activities, the District has managed the overall financial impacts well and does not anticipate needing to use any cash reserves during 2020 due to financial challenges caused by the pandemic. The District has managed the significant increased utilization of some service areas and has successfully provided essential services in a controlled manner while keeping staff and patrons as safe and healthy as possible.

  • A Case Study of the Supporter Groups of the Colorado Rapids and Glocalization
    Friendly Competition: A Case Study of the Supporter Groups of the Colorado Rapids and Glocalization A thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Sociology The Colorado College In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Arts Samuel Franklin Spring 2012 On my honor I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid on this thesis. Samuel Franklin Spring 2012 Acknowledgements I would like to thank everyone who made this project possible. I would like to thank my thesis advisor, Jeff Livesay, for his support and guidance throughout this journey. I would also like to thank Wayne Brant whose blessing made this project feasible. In addition, I would like to thank the Colorado Rapids organization and their supporters whose enthusiasm and contributions to this project were invaluable. Finally, I would like to thank my mom, my dad, my brother, and Lauren for their boundless encouragement. ABSTRACT The increasing presence of supporter groups, or organized fan groups driven by diverse cultural practices, of the Colorado Rapids has resulted in a non-traditional American spectator experience for some fans at games and is an area suitable for sociological study due to gaps in the body of literature. Using Giulianotti and Robertson’s (2007) theory of glocalization as a lens, this thesis examines the forces that are influencing the supporter groups. This study investigates the effect of the forces of globalization on the supporter groups of the Colorado Rapids. Qualitative methods and in-depth interviews were used to obtain information about these processes. This study found three forces simultaneously competing with one another in an effort to become the cultural norm for spectators at Colorado Rapids games.
