This year we’re celebrating where we come from and who we are today: Longhorns.

Students building robots, teacher grants, learning outside the classroom walls, and so much more. All of it made possible by a community that keeps showing up.

Pull on your boots, bring your purple and gold, and join us for an evening of local food, drinks, and Longhorn pride.

Things are growing across Basalt Public Schools this fall, and we could use your help.

BES Fall Garden Day is this Wednesday, October 7, from 8:15 AM to 1:00 PM. The whole 4th grade will be working in the garden with RFOV, and we need adult volunteers for the more technical projects. Even one hour makes a difference.

Here’s what else is happening:

BHS: Student Leadership is planting more than 1,000 flower bulbs in front of the school, with bulbs purchased by BEF.

BMS: Scouting America is building ADA-accessible garden beds and an outdoor learning space for an Eagle Scout project. They’ll also harvest produce for BMS and handle fall cleanup.

Thank you to Roaring Fork Outdoor Volunteers, Scouting America, Eagle Crest Nursery 🌻🌿🌸, and all of our volunteers. These projects happen because of you.

Motors on Midland was a blast last night. 45 cars packed Midland, and the win went to Vicente Diez in his 1968 Ford Mustang.

Thank you to every car owner and everyone who came out for our Longhorns. This is our favorite night in Downtown Basalt, and it means even more knowing it supports Basalt Public Schools.

A huge thank you to all our sponsors, especially our event title sponsor Double Diamond Moving and our community sponsor, Alpine Bank.

Thank you, Basalt! 💜

Big day for Basalt second graders! 🚲

On May 15, BEF is partnering with Wish for Wheels to gift 40 Basalt Elementary second-graders their very own bikes and helmets.

Wish for Wheels has helped put more than 99,000 bikes in kids’ hands since 2004, and this year, 40 of those bikes are rolling into BES.

Every second grader will bring their bike to school for a day of riding, with volunteers from Roaring Fork Cycling helping out and the Basalt Police Department and Roaring Fork Fire Rescue joining in for bike safety before students hit the pavement.

Let's ride!
