The towns of Buena Vista, Poncha Springs and Salida are holding a 2020 Census competition from Sunday, August 23 to Monday, August 31.   

Households that have yet to respond to the Census are challenged to respond online at my2020census.gov during this timeframe.   

Residents who complete their form (and live in the winning town) have a chance to win a $100 gift card.   

To learn more about the competition prizes and rules, contact April at census@chaffeecounty.org.   

As a reminder, Census workers are in the field knocking on doors of households that have yet to respond.   

Census takers are hired from the area they serve, and can be easily identified by a valid government ID badge with their photograph and a U.S. Department of Commerce watermark.
