Larimer County 101 is a series of classes offered to the public to provide an inside look at the workings of Larimer County government and the services we provide. Participants attend evening meetings once a week for two and a half hours a night for ten weeks. County officials strive to keep the meeting interactive, asking participants to solve problems, ask questions, provide input, role play, do homework, and more.
The series culminates with a graduation night. You'll interact with Elected Officials and Larimer County staff and get to know other interested citizens. Anyone interested in knowing more about how your County operates is encouraged to attend.
