The Blur at work

When Harrison isn’t working on The Blur Goes to College, running, practicing music or welding, you might find him at Community Threads in Leadville, where he has a part-time job doing various tasks around the shop a couple days each week. Community Threads, locally owned and operated by Smokey Burgess, is a consignment and outdoor sports shop. It features high-end active outdoor clothing and outerwear, as well as a wide variety of new and used sports gear, including running shoes, clothes and accessories, snowshoes, ice skates, and snowboarding and alpine skiing equipment. Community Threads has the Arkansas Valley’s best selection of new and used Nordic ski gear, featuring skis, boots, poles and bindings by Atomic. You’ll also find sunglasses, gloves and a large selection of small items that make for great gifts. Stop in and check it out at 609 Harrison Ave.
