A Piece of the Past: The Old Trail School

Old Trail School gets Fresh New Look with Help from Wiggins Community Church Youth Group

by Sarah Larino Armed with paintbrushes and elbow grease the Wiggins Community Church Youth Group descended onto the Old Trail School this week. The local youth group painted the schoolhouse to raise funds for their upcoming mission trip to South Dakota. However, the spotlight was once again thrown onto this interesting building and its importance in Wiggins’ history.

Constructed in 1912 the Old Trail School is today the only completely original one room school house in Morgan County. In 1917 the school district relocated the building from its original plot on the Reed Homestead to a site near Overland Trail, giving the school its name. It was there used to educate the children of rural Colorado families for many years.

With the spread of paved roads and automobiles though, use of the Old Trail School declined, as students were consolidated to larger school houses that no longer needed to be within the walking distance.

Despite this, the Old Trail School was not abandoned, in 1946 it was once again moved, It was a win-win situation for Wiggins Community Church this time to the Wiggins School Youth Group members and the Wiggins Historical Group. property. It was used as a The youth group from Wiggins Community Church painted the schoolhouse to raise funds for their mission trip to South music room for the Wiggins School District for many years.

Dakota later this summer.

When the district eventually expanded their facilities, constructing a new music room, the historic school building was once again at risk of demolition. It was purchased by the Wiggins Historical Group in 1964 and repositioned to its present location on High Street across from the Wiggins Town Park.

In 2004 the Historical Group applied for and was granted a listing for the Old Trail School on the National Register of Historic Places. The group also received a grant for the restoration of the school, which was completed in 2009.

Just as the school was used to teach rural students in the past, it holds its learning value today. Ron Seiler, President of the Wiggins Historical Group contends that the school is still fostering education to this day.

“It’s a teaching aid for Youth Group members hard at work on the Old Trail School the community,” Mr. Seiler explained,”A lot of students from the Wiggins School district come in here and they see the difference between their classroom and what it used to be.”

While the school is only open to visitors upon request, it’s utilized for many special programs and is open on Town holidays, such as the Independence Day celebration, and town Christmas festivities. The school also hosts Prairie Day School, where young students from the area get to enjoy a day of teaching as it would have been in 1917.

There are no computers, no heat or air conditioning, no water fountains, or modern smart boards.

Only a chalk board and a teacher, which provides a glimpse into the past for preschool and elementary students. Prairie Day School will be held June 17 and 18 at the school this year.

Now thanks to the Wiggins Community Church youth the Old Trail School has a fresh new look that The inside of the Old Trail School, will allow it to continue to educate which was restored in 2009.

Letters to the Editor Support for the Safe and Accurate Food Labeling Act

Dear Editor, Coloradans made the right choice when they rejected mandatory GMO labeling last November.

Nevertheless, a stubborn fringe continues pursuing labeling mandates in several states and at the federal level – even though scientific studies repeatedly conclude GMOs are safe to eat.

This hurts families across the U.S. and here in Colorado.

Complying with additional, mandatory labeling rules would be costly for food producers – especially if it’s done in the form of a state-by-state patchwork system of food-labeling rules. In the end, the shock to food producers would hit consumers, as families would end up paying the price at the grocery store — up to $500 more per year, according to a Cornell study. Already, one in seven households in Colorado faces food insecurity because they struggle to pay their grocery bill.

That’s why I and so many others support the Safe and Accurate Food Labeling Act, which would create national, uniform, voluntary standards for food labeling.

Let me explain.

Like many others, I see a need for unified, consistent, nationwide food-labeling standards. Consistency is needed in agriculture because of how often food crosses state lines.

The federal Safe and Accurate Food Labeling Act would accomplish this.

However, I don’t see the need for mandatorily labeling anything with ingredients that have genetic modification in their background. There’s no proof those foods pose any risk compared to their non-GMO counterparts, and mandatory labeling just creates added costs to consumers, as well as increased bureaucracy and unnecessary paranoia. The Safe and Accurate Food Labeling Act would leave it up to the food producers to label their products as containing genetic modification, or as GMO-free.

It’s a common-sense, win-win solution.

Please join me in urging our delegates in D.C. to also support this proposed legislation.

Chris Wagner, Longmont-area farmer and Colorado Corn board member

School Violence Has Hit Colorado Hard

School violence has hit Colorado hard. From Columbine to Arapahoe High School, our community has suffered greatly.

Schools need to be a safe place for students to learn.

Sadly, my colleagues in Congress, Reps. Rick Larsen (D-WA) and Suzanne DelBene (D-WA) have also witnessed violence in one of their schools, with a tragic shooting at Marysville-Pilchuck High School in Marysville, Washington in October 2014.

This is an issue that concerns all of us. Our children deserve safe and secure places to learn and grow. My colleagues from Washington state and I have worked together to take a real step to address the problem of school violence and this week we introduced HR 2667, the Safe Schools Act of 2015, to do just that.

This bill will reauthorize the Secure Our Schools program, which provides dollar-fordollar matching grants to local schools which they must use for emergency notification and response technologies, and the acquisition and installation of technology for expedited notification of local law enforcement during an emergency.

This is not a complete solution to the issue of school security and I do not believe the federal government can provide a “one size fits all” solution that works for all schools. But this program can help provide local communities with the tools and training they need to keep their schools safe.

HR 2667 is bipartisan, common sense legislation that will help fund important school safety programs across the country and given some of the tragedies we have suffered here in Colorado, it is a good policy that enables local schools whose own officials know best what is needed to fit their unique circumstances to protect their students.

Sincerely, Mike Coffman, U.S. Representative

Way of the World

by Bob Grand, Publisher Leadership is defined by the American heritage Dictionary as the capacity or ability to lead.

Lead is defined as to play a principle or guiding role. Is it unreasonable to expect our elected officials and government employees at all levels to be accountable for their actions?

Assuming that their intentions are to serve the general welfare of all the people. This is not about being a Democrat, Republicans or Independent. This is America and we have a right to have our individual rights and beliefs. We should have an expectation that our public servants, either elected, appointed, or hired have a responsibility to be accountable for their actions.

In years past, many people took government positions because they provided security and decent benefits although the salaries tended to be below industry averages. Now the salaries are very good and the benefits are extraordinary, compared to industry averages. If you ask the young people who live in the inner cities if government is really helping them I think you know the answer. Elected officials should not be worrying about the spin but rather the actual results, as should all of us.

The extremes of both parties do not serve the people well. Yet talking to folks about running for office, any office, they ask, are you crazy? Why should I put myself and my family through that?

The reality is we are a divided nation and to get things done we need to see compromise.

This is challenging. The party’s extreme bases tend to see any compromise as a weakness. It is easy to take a black and white decision process. It does not require much thinking. This is naïve and does not serve the people or future generations well. Should we not expect leadership from all our elected officials and reasonable accountability from senior government employees? Should we really accept the performance levels we see from the VA, the IRS, the GSA, etc, etc, etc!

Southeast Weld Fire Protection District Seeks Mill Levy Increase

Lost Creek Guide

The Southeast Weld Fire Protection District (SEWFPD) Board would like to inform voters of a proposed 2 mill levy increase, which may appear on the next ballot.

The last mill levy increase for the Fire Protection District was 2002. Our current mil levy and or assessed values is below many of the surrounding districts and well below the county average. Presently the mill levy is 5.764.

Financially, the District is in good standing but we feel it is important to be proactive in order to maintain our Advanced Life Care Ambulance and continue to staff a fire engine. We have not seen considerable revenue from oil and gas but the recent decline in oil production will be noticeable.

Our goal as Board members is to provide voters with as many facts possible to ensure you are prepared to make an educated vote.

Various factors play a role in the proposed increase which could be used, in part, to maintain equipment and the service level the fire district has grown accustom to, such as responding to the districts needs with 24/7 ambulance and fire engine staff.

Current statistics are: • The District encompasses 492 square miles in Weld and Adams County.

• We average 80 emergency calls per month.

• Our call volume in the last 10 years has tripled.

• To date the amount of calls has increased by 10% since the same time last year.

The District has become a combination department, this means we have career and volunteer firefighters, we have had to go this route for many reasons as have surrounding departments in the state and across United States as volunteers in communities have drastically changed due to state and federal mandates regarding training requirements.

The District doesn’t rely solely on its mill levy as revenue. The Board will continue to seek grant opportunities. However, we cannot rely solely on grants. There is a huge demand for grant funds by various organizations and awarding of those funds is very competitive.

The Board is considering up to a 2 mill increase proposal to voters. What does this mean to you?

• Each mill is calculated on the assessed (not appraised) value of your home. For example, if your property is assessed at $100,000 your increase would be approximately $ 15.92 a year or $1.33 a month for a 2 mill increase.

• A mill is a $1 revenue for each $1,000 of assessed valuation Based on the information in this article we would like you to consider the following: • Would the additional $ 15.92 a year bring peace of mind to you to know you will have 24/7 emergency response care?

• Would you rest easier knowing should a medical emergency arise, highly educated firefighters using up-to-date equipment will respond quickly?

• Is it worth an additional $ 1.33 a month to have trained qualified firefighters using up to date equipment at its best?

• Would it be worth a small mill levy increase to know, should something happen while you are at work and your children or family are home…they call 911 that they are in good hands with SEWFPD? • Is it worth $1.33 per month to know that should you be in auto accident, you will have the same good hands respond quickly to your needs?

The SEWFPD Board encourages you to contact us with your thoughts to better assist us in making a determination of whether to place this mill levy issue before the voters in November.

303-732-1028, from 8am-5pm Monday – Friday.

Respectively submitted, SEWFPD Board

Hudson Fire Protection District Seeks Mill Levy Increase

The Hudson Fire Protection District (HFPD) has implemented a Strategic Planning Committee. This committee is made-up of; the Fire Chief, Hudson and Lochbuie Town Hall members, firefighters (careerandvolunteer), the Chief of Platte Valley Ambulance, and is open to any interested citizens from Hudson, Lochbuie, and any others from the area that the Hudson Fire Protection District is responsible to for emergency service. Our meetings are scheduled for the first Monday of each month starting at 530pm. Meetings are held at HFPD station 1 located at 702 Cedar St. in Hudson. I would encourage anyone that is interested, to attend and help plot the future of your Fire Department, or to sit in as an interested citizen The district has contracted a company to convert the upstairs of Hudson station 1 into a 24 hour a day crew quarters. The project is due to be completed by summer of 2015.This will allow 24 hour coverage for the citizens of the district from two firestations!

The District is placing a Mill Levy increase on the November 2015, ballot. This increase would be used to hire more firefighters, replace aging fire apparatus, and to equip our firefighters with safe and effective protective equipment(PPE). Keep in mind that laws require a fire department{district) to keep protective equipment(PPE) up to date and all equipment has an expiration date. The increase will also be used to maintain and increase the level of service to our communities.

The communities need for Emergency Services has increased substantially over the recent years, stretching the Fire Districts financial resources to their limits to meet the current and projected general operational and administrative needs of the Fire District’s expenditures to meet that demand, the Fire District has not increased its property tax for at least 24 years!

The cost of a Mill increase would be approximately $2 per Mill for every $100,000 of assessed value of the property. The District has one of the lowest Mills in the state at 3.536; I am asking that we increase the Mill Levy from 3.536 to 7. This increase would allow for the district to use the Mill Levy to increase our daily staffing level from 2 per station to 3 per station, purchase new fire apparatus, replace worn or outdated protective equipment and allow the district to develop an equipment replacement program that allows for the purchase of fire engines, watertenders, wildland or brush fire fighting apparatus and support vehicles (pick-up trucks, command vehicles) when needed {approximately every 5-10 years).

This increase would add an approximate $7 dollars per $100,000 of assessed valuation of a property.

It is a fact that calls for service at the Hudson Fire Protection District are increasing every year, due to the growth of both the Towns’ of Hudson and Lochbuie, I urge the citizens of the District to consider this increase to make your fire department more self-sufficient, safer and deliver a quicker and more effective service to all citizens protected by theHudson Fire Protection District. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this proposal please contact district. {303)536-0161 Stay safe! And please take the time to visit your local fire station to meet the brave men and women of your Fire District.

Summertime is Here!

Fathers and Faith

Lost Creek Guide

by Janeen Hill, Pastor at Community United Methodist Church, Keenesburg The story goes that Father’s Day is just like Mother’s Day – except you don’t spend as much money on the present.

In the Bible we are given many examples of fathers – and none of them are perfect. First, Abraham, whose name was changed from “Abram” when God promised to make him father of a multitude too numerous to be counted. Abraham had flaws like the rest of us – he lied, he fought with his family members, he didn’t treat all his household members fairly. (Genesis, Chapters 12 through 22). Abraham’s bottom line was that he listened to God, tried to do what God asked, and believed – believed even in the face of facts that seemed to make a lie of what God was telling him.

Abraham’s grandson Jacob cheated his twin brother (who was the older) not once but twice, ran away, and then got cheated by his new father-in-law, who gave him his older daughter first in marriage by trickery, not the younger one that Jacob wanted. (Genesis, Chapters 28 to 29).

Jacob had 12 sons and at least one daughter – he tried to obey God but showed favoritism to the son of his favorite wife Rachel. The other sons sold their brother Joseph into slavery. Joseph survived being a slave, and God led Joseph to a position where he was able to save his family from famine many years later. (Genesis, Chapters 37 to 47).

Love God, obey God, believe God – these are the things our Biblical forefathers teach us.

Sometimes it seems that fathers are like some of the tools in the garage that are just sitting there waiting to be used. Dads do the best they know how. Dads want to give their kids the things they want. They want their kids to be happy. Dads will let you make a mistake and hope you learn from it. Dads will love you through your pain, lots of times never saying a word.

Some of us didn’t get a Dad like that. When that happens it can be a challenge all our lives to reconcile to that fact, to forgive (and sometimes, to cease contact). Many times our relationship with our own father affects how we feel about God – distant, absent, punishing, instead of loving. The Good News is this: God is the father we’d all like to have: loving, forgiving, wanting the best for us, but letting us make our own mistakes. No matter what we have done, God welcomes us back with love – any time we mess up. All we have to do is say “Here I am, God, I’ve been away but I want to come home.” And God welcomes us.

Good News indeed! Happy Father’s Day!

Wiggins Town Park and Delbert Teets Ball Field Complex Improvements to Continue Through Summer

by Sarah Larino In 2013 the plot of land at the corner of 4th and High Street looked radically different.

Today it is home to the growing Wiggins Town Park and Delbert Teets Ball Field Complex.

When the park is completed at the end of this summer it will include amenities such as the now re-built baseball field, a soft-ball field, a t-ball field, a basketball court, and a sand volleyball court. The City Parks Department also plans on reconstructing the Batting Cages and adding numerous sidewalks.

All of these improvements are thanks to a state grant the Town of Wiggins received in 2013 from Great Outdoors Colorado. Great Outdoors Colorado, otherwise known as GOCO, is a branch of the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Department that One of the softball fields that was laid with sod as the was created by voters in 1992. GOCO newest addition to the park. invests a portion of the Colorado Lottery proceeds into parks, trails, rivers, and wildlife. They’ve invested over $825 million dollars in Colorado parks and two years ago GOCO granted over 400 hundred thousand dollars to the Town of Wiggins for recreational infrastructure at the Community Park. The grant was recently extended for use through September, however the town Public Works Department hopes to have the majority of the park completed by the end of this month. Most recently the soccer, and t-ball fields were laid with sod. Plans for the construction of a bathroom and gazebo are underway.

The sand volleyball court has already been dug, but still lacks its net and sand.

Citizens have been watching the progress Construction materials for the restrooms and of the construction and eagerly await the gazebo that are soon to be built. park’s completion.

These exciting amenities mean a lot for the town.

“Public parks are important to any community as they provide a place for families and friends to gather,” stated Wiggins Town Administrator, Paul Larino,”Our park provides an opportunity for kids to have a safe place to explore and play.” The residents of Wiggins are already utilizing the new park facilities. The Delbert Teets Ball Field Complex hosts numerous baseball games and practices throughout the week, housing the local Little League, softball, and High School teams.

When the rest of the fields and features of the Wiggins Town Park are finalized they are sure to be appreciated.

As Mr. Larino best summed it up,“Specifically for Wiggins, this public park will be the focal point for numerous activities in our community.”

In 1973 he made a career change and began working for the school district as a custodian. He adored all those kids, and couldn’t have asked for a more rewarding job. He retired from there in 1993.

After retiring his spent a lot of time fishing and strolling through the flea market on a nice day, as well as riding the 3 wheeled bicycle that was given to him by a very good friend whom he adored. That bike became his signature and you would see him several times a day riding all over town. We were so blessed to have him as our dad.

He was preceded in death by his wife Estela. He is survived by daughters, Irma Estrada of Lakewood, Barbara Conner(Richard)of Dacono, Rachel Ybarra (Tammy) of Hardin, Montana and Marah Ybarra of Brighton and sons, Florencio III (Angie) of Venango, Ne., Sammy (Wilda) of Poteau, Ok., and Jacob (Melanie) of Rineyville, Kentucky, as well as several grandchildren and a few great-grandchildren.

Be Alert: Receive the Call Before the Storm

With severe weather season here it is important to make sure you are prepared. One of the first steps in being prepared is signing up for severe weather warnings through CodeRED Weather Warning.

By visiting www.weld911alert.com, residents can sign up for alerts through Weld County. Once signed up residents will receive alerts on severe thunderstorms, flash floods and tornadoes, which will be delivered via phone call, text, e-mail or a combination of all three, based on your specific preference.

Only residents in the direct path of severe weather will receive alerts after a warning is issued by the National Weather Service. Listen carefully to the message and take immediate action, if indicated, to protect yourself and your loved ones.

Also, download the free CodeRED Mobile Alert app today to stay informed of community, emergency and severe weather alerts directly on your mobile device. The app is geo-aware, meaning that you will only receive alerts that impact your specific location.

Having an NOAA Weather Alert Radio is another way to make sure you receive local alerts. Also, it is critical to come up with an emergency plan with family and friends should you be separated during an event. By being prepared and using common safety sense, residents should be able to avoid a situation where serious injury or death could be the final outcome.

Weld Commissioners Join I-76 Economic Development Group to Promote Three Weld County Communities

WELD COUNTY, CO – Three Weld County Commissioners joined the I-76 Economic Development “Imagination Tour” yesterday to help promote the Weld County municipalities of Hudson, Keenesburg and Lochbuie. Commissioner Chair Barbara Kirkmeyer, Commissioner Sean Conway and Commissioner Julie Cozad joined local elected officials and municipal staff from those three communities to promote business and residential development to approximately 100 Realtors, land developers and business owners.

“This tour provided a great way to introduce southeastern Weld County to a diverse group of interested parties,” said Kirkmeyer. “It was a great example of the collaborative work the I-76 Economic Development group is doing to promote their region!”

The tour, which began just south of the county line at the Prairie Center shopping center in Brighton, lasted approximately four hours as attendees took two chartered buses that drove from Brighton to Lochbuie, Hudson and Keenesburg before stopping for lunch at the Wild Animal Sanctuary. The tour highlighted each municipality and its amenities and allowed attendees to learn about the numerous lots available for development.

“The proximity of these communities to Denver and DIA, as well as to interstates and rail lines, make southeast Weld a prime spot for new growth – business and residential,” said Conway.

According to Upstate Colorado, which helped sponsor the tour, the I-76 Economic Development Initiative “…is a collaborative effort between representatives of the towns of Hudson, Keenesburg and Lochbuie; local educational institutions, utilities and private sector businesses. Its goal is to construct a strategic plan for economic development that is consistent with the opportunities, assets and resources available to this region of Colorado.”

This tour was certainly a success,” said Commissioner Cozad. “The number of attendees was outstanding, and the feedback was extremely positive.”

To learn more about the I-76 Economic Development Initiative, please visit the Upstate Colorado web site at http://www.upstatecolorado.org/siteselection/initiativei76-page.php

Facts About Field Bindweed

Field bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis) is a non-native deep-rooted perennial that reproduces from seed and creeping, horizontal roots (rhizomes). Field bindweed stems are prostrate (grows low to the ground) and twining, and grow up to 6 feet long. Leaves are distinguishable by their arrowhead shape. The flowers are bell or trumpet-shaped, white to pink in color, and are about 1 inch long. Field bindweed seeds can remain viable in the soil for up to 50 years.

Field bindweed emerges from its root system in the spring. Flowering occurs from June to September or the first fall frost.

The number of seeds produced per plant ranges from 25 to 300. Seed production is variable depending on environmental conditions. Field bindweed is an extremely difficult noxious weed to control because, in part, its root system can go down and out 20 feet into the soil. This repeatedly gives rise to numerous long rhizomes. When the roots are broken by disking or tilling, these root fragments will start new infestations in the field or garden.

Field bindweed is a problem throughout Colorado. It is one of the most competitive perennial weeds. It is widespread in cultivated areas, pastures, lawns, gardens, roadsides, and waste areas from 4,000 to 8,000 feet in elevation.

To successfully manage field bindweed, containment and persistence in controlling existing stands are necessary in order to exhaust the root system and deplete the soil seed bank. This weed needs to be continually stressed, forcing it to exhaust root nutrient stores and eventually die. Of all control methods, prevention is most important. Maintain healthy pastures and rangeland and continually monitor your property for new infestations. A healthy cover of desirable perennial plants will assist in discouraging field bindweed establishment.

The field bindweed mite seems to be a very effective bio-control option. The mite only feeds on field bindweed. The mite forms galls that decrease the flowering potential of the plant resulting in decreased seed production. The mites are easily spread once they are established by mowing, walking or grazing through the infestation.
