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. For example, the current grant calendar includes two competitive grant rounds. Grant applications are due April 1 and October 1 each year. Grants awarded from both grant rounds are disbursed from a single fiscal year’s revenues. Grants awarded from the April round will be coded with a “1” (e.g. M1, 01, C1), and grants awarded from the October round will be coded with a “2” (e.g. M2, 02, C2). In the first years of the program, as many as four grant rounds were held during a single fiscal year. There was only one grant round in FY97 and FY01. Only the mini grant round was held in FY20 due to less funding as the result of COVID-19. Grant categories without specific due dates, such as Emergency or Historic Structure Assessment grants, use a two-letter code because they are not associated with any particular grant round. The letter coding system follows: 0 – The number “0” identifies all general, competitive grants awarded since the inception of the program. The majority of all SHF grants are identified in this manner. M – “Mini Grants” awarded through the competitive process. The maximum request amount for these grants has changed over time, beginning at $5,000 in FY93, increasing to $10,000 in FY99, and reaching the present maximum request amount of $25,000 in FY03. AS – Noncompetitive Archaeological Assessment grants, first awarded in FY03. BG – Byways grants, awarded to the Department of Transportation as match to federal transportation funds and sub granted by CDOT to local byways projects in FY95 and FY96. C – Internal, noncompetitive, nonemergency grants to the Colorado Historical Society first awarded during FY98. Prior to that year, grants to CHS were awarded through the competitive process. Emergency grants to CHS will appear in the OE code group with all other emergency grant projects. DL – Grants awarded to local governments for public projects in partnership with the Department of Local Affairs, first awarded in FY00. G – Grants that dealt with specific initiatives identified by the CHS Board of Directors. These grants were awarded in FY00 and FY01 only. HA – Noncompetitive Historic Structure Assessment grants, first awarded in FY00. 0E – Noncompetitive Emergency grants. P – Phased, competitive grants, provided multi-year support for larger projects. These grants were awarded between FY97 and FY01 only. SP – Noncompetitive Survey Planning grants, first awarded in FY20. T – Noncompetitive targeted grants intended to accomplish statewide goals, first awarded in FY97. The last three-digit number in the ID number represents the grant award number. This number is assigned shortly after the grant applications are received in the SHF office. Since not all grant applications are funded, the numbers that appear in this report will not be sequential. By way of example, grant ID number 08-01-017 is a General grant, awarded during the first grant round of Fiscal Year 2008, with an internal processing number of 017. Grant ID number 08-T1-001 is a noncompetitive grant awarded to accomplish statewide goals during the first grant round of Fiscal Year 2008, with an internal processing number of 001. This report is sorted by County/Location (typically City); followed by Applicant’s Name, ID number, and Property. The County/Location designations are based on the location of the project itself, not where the grant recipient is located. If a project is known to be located outside of the corporate limits of a city, its location is designated “Rural”. If a project affects the entire county, its county and location are designated “Countywide”. If a project affects more than one county, but is smaller than the entire state, its county and location are designated “Regional”. And, finally, if a project affects the entire state (i.e. large-scale education projects), its county and location are designated “Statewide”. The name used in the Property column is the property’s historic name. If a project is known to involve multiple properties (i.e. a survey project), the entry is “Various”. Finally, this report is current as of the date of its preparation. Several grant types are accepted and processed throughout the year, while other grant awards may be declined or rescinded at any time. Funded projects may be completed under budget, and the remaining funds returned to be awarded to other projects. The information in this report is therefore intended as informational only, providing examples of appropriate projects and basic location information. If more detailed information is required regarding a specific project, please contact the grant recipient or the SHF office. The files of the State Historical Fund are public records, and any project file listed in this report may be accessed by contacting our office at 303-866-2825.

For example, Broomfield County is Colorado’s newest county (2001). The total dollar listed above for Broomfield County does not include grants made prior to 2001 to portions of Adams, Boulder, Jefferson, and Weld counties, which now constitute Broomfield County. Additionally, the costs for easements and covenants prior to FY2004 are not included in these calculations, and amounts may change if grant awards are declined or rescinded in the future. Due to a new formula for tallying the total numbers of successful grants from SHF’s inception, some numbers may vary from those reported prior to 2011.

  • A Pdf of the Tour
    Welcome to Historic Denver’s Molly Brown House Museum! Together we will explore this home and the story of a woman you may know as “Molly.” The true story however of Margaret Tobin Brown reveals a leader and activist whose lasting legacy shows the impact we all can have when we rally a community around a common cause. Another person in this house’s history who left behind a legacy is Art Leisenring, the owner of this House of Lions in the 1960s. When it came time for Art to move on, he worried that if he put 1340 Pennsylvania up for sale, it would be torn down like other houses on the block. In a grassroots effort, he gathered community members and together they founded Historic Denver, Inc. to save and restore the Molly Brown House. 50 years on, Historic Denver continues to own and operate the Molly Brown House Museum. And, as a leading preservation organization, we advocate on behalf of the diverse places and spaces all around the city. We know that historic places and the history they reveal can inspire us to take collective action today and ensure a better future for all; a vison shared, no doubt, by Art Leisenring and Margaret Brown. Enjoy your tour and thank you for supporting Historic Denver! Page 1 of 19 Exhibit Introduction This year we celebrate Historic Denver’s 50th anniversary of preserving the places that matter at its first save – the Molly Brown House Museum! Through an in-house exhibit, Looking Forward / Looking Back, you’ll learn about the work undertaken to restore each room, find treasures that tell the Brown family story, and meet the founders of Historic Denver.

  • Post-Conference Report 2021 PARTNERS in the OUTDOORS CONFERENCE
    w COLORADO PARKS & WILDLIFE Post-Conference Report 2021 PARTNERS IN THE OUTDOORS CONFERENCE 2021 PARTNERS IN THE OUTDOORS CONFERENCE Photo: @CaptureTheAction Page 1 Partners in the Outdoors Dear Partners in the Outdoors Conference Community, Things were a little different this year... again. We didn’t have the pleasure of meeting in person to network and build relationships in a face to face setting. However, as we learned last year, the pandemic has provided an opportunity to extend our reach beyond the physical walls of a conference venue. Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW), with the advice of the many partners serving on our conference planning committee (see page 14), determined that it would be best to host a scaled back virtual conference to address zoom fatigue and the saturated market of webinars that we are all experiencing. Accordingly, the conference agenda included a total of just nine virtual events. However, each of these events were timely and relevant to the outdoor and natural resource management industries in Colorado. I am pleased to report that we have continued our growth trajectory with over 2,250 people participating in our conference representing nearly 400 organizations! This includes the 950 people who attended our sessions live and another 1,300 views of our conference recordings. We kicked things off in late April with two nationally renowned keynote speakers, Eduardo Garcia and Dr. J. Drew Lanham, who shared their inspiring stories related to their lives and careers in the outdoors. We then hosted a series of partner and CPW led sessions that supported the priority areas identified in our Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP).

Invasive mussels knocking on Colorado's door prompts Highline Lake to revise boat ramp rules Beginning April 1, Colorado Parks and Wildlife will lock the boat ramp each evening at Highline Lake State Park, or when Aquatic Nuisance Species inspectors are not available. The new rule is in response to the growing threat posed to Colorado's water by the few boaters suspected of illegally launching their watercraft without the required aquatic nuisance species inspection. Anglers can provide input at two CPW 'State of the Fish" meetings in Summit, Grand counties In continuing efforts to engage the public in constructive conversations, Colorado Parks and Wildlife will hold two 'State of the Fish' gatherings in Summit and Grand County later this month. Agency biologists and managers will be available to answer questions about the current status of local fisheries, and future management plans. Go fish! 2018 fishing licenses are available now, valid beginning April 1 Colorado Parks and Wildlife reminds anglers that it's time to get ready for another season of fishing. Coloradans and non-resident visitors can purchase a 2018 annual fishing license now either online, at your local CPW office or at any of our hundreds of authorized sales agents statewide.

  • Chatfield Stables
    CHATFIELD STABLES The Chatfield Stables is located on the old ranch land in what is now part of Chatfield State Park. It offers a timeless experience for leisurely horseback exploration of the nearby trails and streams. The Stables are open for business all year round. The Stables provide rental horses for trail rides and boarding facilities that are open to the public. Tack sheds and hitch rails are also provided, along with a covered pavilion for group picnics. Natural surface equestrian trails are accessed from the stables. The staff offers wrangler-guided horseback riding throughout the Park. Bob Hantschel, owner of the Stables, says, “Enjoy a true Colorado trail ride at Chatfield Stables. Our scenic trails are sure to delight any rider. Lots of trails in thousands of acres. With the Platte River running through, we have water features and views of the foothills along the many miles of prairie and forest trails.” Bob also commented that “Our horses are great for all experience levels. We have raised many of them since they were little foals; they love their job and do it well. We have approximately 50 horses, each one has a name and special personality. Feel free to visit our horses, there is always someone near the fence waiting to be pet. Or, to learn more about the horses (and all of the services), visit our website www.chatfieldstables.com.” Riding the trails within Chatfield State Park on a horse is likely the mode of transportation most in keeping with the long-term history of the land, the streams, and the local lifestyle.
