Grand County and the Moab Mosquito Abatement District have scheduled an aerial spray of larvicide for 300 acres in the wetlands on Sunday July 14th.

And later in the news, we get the latest on the Moab Area Travel Council’s “Do It Like A Local” initiative, which publicly launched during the July 4th celebrations in the park last week. “My philosophy is that we like that you love it here, but love it like you live here,” said MATC director Elaine Gizler of the new program.
