M M I S S I O N JEFFERSON COUNTY HISTORICAL COMMISSION NEWS 2001 The second phase of the Cultural Resource Survey is underway.The field work will be prioritized so that the remaining mountain areas – Evergreen, North Mountain and Deer Creek/South Turkey Creek – are completed first. The funding is a cooperative effort with the County Colorado Historical Commissioners providing special funds, and the JCHC SCIENTIFIC & CULTURAL Society — State FACILITIES DIST R I C T Historical Fund acquiring grant money through the Colorado Historical Fund and the Scientific and Cultural Finance District. All members of the commission were provided copies of the first phase and were asked to review and provide feedback to Cathleen Norman. The membership on the commission continues to change. Members Delbert Bishop, Kris Christensen, Scott Pierson and Kevin Rucker submitted their resignations during the year. Each one contributed greatly with guidance to our work of our commission. Kris and Kevin influenced the commission with their enthusiasm and experience with the State Historical Society and other historic preservation organizations. Charter member Jane Gardner and longtime member Ruth Richardson also retired from the commission.All these people will be missed. In May, five new members came on board,Tommy Raye and John Jenkins from the Golden area; Charles Hanson from Lakewood;Tim Montgomery from Arvada; and Joyce Weedon from South Jeffco.All these new appointees come with experience and great interest in preserving and providing the effort to accomplish the work of the commission. Different museums and historical societies continue to provide the monthly displays in the atrium of the Government Center, thanks to the efforts of the Education Committee. This committee also has made contacts with numerous writing groups and the teachers in Jefferson County R-1 schools to promote the Writers Award Contest.This resulted in a record number of entries in the youth category.The winning articles appear in this issue of HISTORICALLY JEFFCO. The Historic Preservation Committee has been extremely involved this year coordinating the contract and work for the second phase of the Cultural Resource Survey that began in August.The committee has worked diligently with various departments to provide options for Certified Local Government status to preserve historic sites in the county. Members of this committee continue to provide input to the County Planning Department on developments in the County and their historic merit. Commission members continue to serve as liaisons to their local historical societies. Max Haug has attended meetings of Rocky Flats Historical Group, and Tommy Raye and Carole Lomond attended the meetings of Lariat Loop partners, keeping the JCHC aware of historical activities throughout the county.

  • A TIMELINE for GOLDEN, COLORADO (Revised October 2003)
    A TIMELINE FOR GOLDEN, COLORADO (Revised October 2003) "When a society or a civilization perishes, one condition can always be found. They forgot where they came from." Carl Sandburg This time-line was originally created by the Golden Historic Preservation Board for the 1995 Golden community meetings concerning growth. It is intended to illustrate some of the events and thoughts that helped shape Golden. Major historical events and common day-to-day happenings that influenced the lives of the people of Golden are included. Corrections, additions, and suggestions are welcome and may be relayed to either the Historic Preservation Board or the Planning Department at 384-8097. The information concerning events in Golden was gathered from a variety of sources. Among those used were: • The Colorado Transcript • The Golden Transcript • The Rocky Mountain News • The Denver Post State of Colorado Web pages, in particular the Colorado State Archives The League of Women Voters annual reports Golden, The 19th Century: A Colorado Chronicle. Lorraine Wagenbach and Jo Ann Thistlewood. Harbinger House, Littleton, 1987 The Shining Mountains. Georgina Brown.

  • Geology and Hydrology, Front Range Urban Corridor, Colorado
    Bibliography and Index of Geology and Hydrology, Front Range Urban Corridor, Colorado By FELICIE CHRONIC and JOHN CHRONIC GEOLOGICAL SURVEY BULLETIN 1306 Bibliographic citations for more than 1,800 indexed reports, theses, and open-file releases concerning one of the Nation's most rapidly growing areas UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE, WASHINGTON : 1974 UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR ROGERS C. B. MORTON, Secretary GEOLOGICAL SURVEY V. E. McKelvey, Director Library of Congress catalog-card No. 74-600045 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office Washington, D. C. 20402- Price $1.15 (paper cover) Stock Number 2401-02545 PREFACE This bibliography is intended for persons wishing geological information about the Front Range Urban Corridor. It was compiled at the University of Colorado, funded by the U.S. Geological Survey, and is based primarily on references in the Petroleum Research Microfilm Library of the Rocky Mountain Region. Extensive use was made also of U.S. Geological Survey and American Geological Institute bibliographies, as well as those of the Colorado Geological Survey. Most of the material listed was published or completed before July 1, 1972; references to some later articles, as well as to a few which were not found in the first search, are appended at the end of the alphabetical listing. This bibliography may include more references than some users feel are warranted, but the authors felt that the greatest value to the user would result from a comprehensive rather than a selective listing. Hence, we decided to include the most significant synthesizing articles and books in order to give a broad picture of the geology of the Front Range Urban Corridor, and to include also some articles which deal with geology of areas adjacent to, and probably pertinent to, the corridor.

  • All Grants Awarded Through Fiscal Year 2020 INTRODUCTION and KEY
    All Grants Awarded Through Fiscal Year 2020 INTRODUCTION AND KEY This report is a list of all grants awarded by the Colorado Historical Society’s State Historical Fund (SHF) since its inception in 1992 (state Fiscal Year 1993) through the end of Fiscal Year 2020. The amounts listed are the original award amounts. If for some reason the entire grant amount was not used (i.e. a project was terminated or was completed under budget) the full amount awarded will appear. In other instances grant awards were increased either to enable project completion or to cover the costs of easements. In these instances, the additional award amount is shown in a separate entry as an increase. In those cases where no work was accomplished and the funds were either declined by the grant recipient or were required to be returned to the SHF through rescissions, no entry will appear. For this reason, projects listed in one version of this report may not appear in later versions, and the financial information shown in this report may not be comparable to other revenue reports issued by the SHF. Grants listed in this report are identified by project ID number. The first two characters in the project ID number represent the fiscal year from which the grant was scheduled to be paid. The state is on a July 1 – June 30 fiscal year. So, for example, all grants made between July 1, 2006 and June 30, 2007 will be coded “07”. The next two characters identify the type of grant. In the case of grants that are awarded based on specific application due dates, the grant round in which the project was funded will be paired with either a letter or number.

  • Fv Golden Fact Sheet 2019
    Golden At A Glance… Location: Located in an area of spectacular natural beauty, Golden is where the mountains meet the plains in pretty Clear Creek Valley. The town is completely surrounded by high points – to the east are two high volcanic mesas (North and South Table Mountains). To the west are the foothills, dominated by Mount Zion and Lookout Mountain. Lookout Mountain can be climbed by car, the others by trails. Clear Creek flows directly through the town and is lined with paved bike and hiking trails. Golden is one of Colorado’ oldest and most historic towns and is filled with a large number of historic buildings. The town occupies approximately 8 square miles and located 12 miles west of Denver at an official elevation of 5,675 feet above sea level. Population: Approximately 20,500 History: Golden was founded in 1859 and was the territorial capitol of Colorado from 1862 until 1867. It was originally called “Golden City,” not only because it was a supply center for miners of the region during the Pikes Peak Gold Rush, but also, ironically, because one of the first prospectors to pan for gold in this area was named Thomas L. Golden. Museums/Attractions: Golden is proud to be home to many museums and attractions. Coors Brewery Tour: Coors is the largest single-site brewery in the world and one of Colorado’s most popular attractions. Since 1873, Coors Brewing Company has thrived on a legacy of quality, innovation and customer service, transforming authentic Rocky Mountain spring water into a wide variety of beers known around the world.
