Apologies for the lack of posting on our great website.  The last year was hard beyond any measure of the word.  COVID-19 really put a damper on the Barn plans!  However, we are still moving forward in hopes that once COVID is “roped in” we can plan events and have a wonderful venue for private social engagements.  

In the meantime, the Barn Committee is looking for a few good committee volunteers.  The person MUST love history (especially Western History), have energy and enthusiasm to help up move forward and fill in some of our missing board officer vacancies, i.e. secretary, treasurer, VP.  Please send me a personal email with the subject line “Barn Committee” to: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..  Also my cell phone number is 719.250.9435.  I guarantee you will enjoy the fruitful work that is being done.

The Committee is now working on issues of importance before we can open the Barn for tours and events.  Security and signage will be first.  We are talking with the Lake administration to see how we could go about putting in a bathroom.  This will take awhile, so any events we have, we will need porta potties.  

We are excited to announce that the Barn Committee hosted a tour and presentation of the Barn in November 2019 for the American Chuck Wagon Association based out of Texas.  This is the number one chuck wagon group in the U.S.  They suggested collaboration with our group to hold chuck wagon cookoffs at the Barn in the future.  This will be a yearly event and we hope to get this going in 2022.
