Fort Collins’ Responsible Alcohol Retailers (RAR) is a group of businesses who adhere to a Code of Ethics around the safe sale and service of alcohol. Members are liquor stores, bars, restaurants, and other businesses that provide a service to alcohol retailers that support their efforts. The group first convened in the fall of 2004.
RAR members are united in their commitment to the following goals:
- Preventing access to alcohol by minors
- Avoiding business practices that promote high-risk drinking
- Providing options for patrons to get home safely
- Collaborating with community entities to solve challenges faced by alcohol retailers
- Providing server responsibility training opportunities for staff
- Cultivating a relationship built on trust with Fort Collins Police Department
- Informing the community about our commitment to reduce underage drinking
RAR members are part of a community wide effort to reduce youth access to alcohol and ensure a safe environment for those over the age of 21 yrs. If you are interested in joining this worthwhile effort contact Dawn Nannini at dawn@teamfortcollins.org.
