FOUNTAIN, Colo. — The City of Fountain and The Fountain Valley Chamber of Commerce will celebrate the launch of a new fiber-optic network Wednesday, March 30 with a “ribbon tying” ceremony at Peaks N Pines Brewery.

make broadband service available to all homes and businesses in the City of Fountain and the City’s electric

our community will be the culmination of several years of work by the city and will complete a major
Strategic Objective set by Council in 2019. This is a great day for the community of Fountain!”
