In a recent government meeting, officials highlighted several community events and initiatives aimed at fostering local engagement and celebrating the town's heritage. A significant mural is currently being painted at the intersection in front of city hall, marking the town's status as the first in the state. This project is expected to be completed within the next few days.
The meeting also announced the continuation of the popular Friday night street fair, featuring live music, food, and entertainment. A pet parade is scheduled for September 2 at 9:00 AM, followed by a Labor Day parade at 10:00 AM, promising a festive weekend for residents.
Additionally, officials reflected on the recent celebration of the town's 150th anniversary, which was well-received by the community. Looking ahead, a wine and jazz festival is set for August 24 at Shaped Up Park, inviting all to participate.
Acknowledging the hard work of the staff, officials expressed gratitude for their support, especially during times when some team members are on vacation. The meeting concluded with a reminder of the next consortium meeting on October 2, which will focus on homelessness in Boulder County, and a final meeting for the year on December 4, addressing funding for early childhood services.
