From THE FLUME dated Friday, April 17, 2009.
 
County clean-up days
 
  Park County clean-up days have been scheduled.
  They will be: Bailey, June 13; Fairplay, June 27, and Lake George, July 25.  All times are 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
  There will be some changes from the past.  “Recycling is not much of a possiblility this year because of the economy,” said Park County Commissioner Dick Hodges. People will have to pay for disposal of some items, such as computer monitors, to reimburse its cost of disposal, he said for instance a 15-inch computer monitor will cost $7.
  Park County Comissioner John Tighe expressed his appreciation to Duke Dozier, the owner of the land at the top of Crow Hill, who has allowed it to be used for Bailey clean-up.
 
*****************************************
 
Knowing the Baily clean-up day will help us determine a clean-up time for ECHPOA property and taking to the top of Crow Hill on June 13th.  I will put this on the agenda for our meeting at 7:00 p.m., Wednesday, May 6, 2009. 
 
See you then.

Then, many went ice skating, some for the first time.  One “older” man was seen putting on his skates, approaching the ice, falling down, taking off his skates and returning to the group of spectators.  Maybe next year!  Horseback riding also took place.
