County residents. This great event has always been free of charge to attendees.
Historically, Pueblo City Council has supported Safety Jam with a cash donation. We
would also invite Pueblo City Council Members to be part of our Hometown Hero
Ceremony and greet the crowd at the event on June 1, 2024, at 12:00. The 2024 Safety
Jam Hometown Hero is Dave Feamster.
