Doug Schrepel and Laurie Clauss are excited to host the first social of the 2010 spring season on Saturday, April 10th. The festivities begin at 6:00 pm and end whenever. If you will kindly bring a delicious dish to share, we will provide tea, coffee, and other staples. Feel free to bring beer or wine if you desire. Kids are very welcome. We have several cats, so those with severe allergies to the feline species...be warned!! For cat lovers our home may be a dream come true, if they can be coaxed out of hiding (ask to see the amazing 24 pound Calvin, he could use the exercise).

Citizens Project is excited to present their inaugural Citizen's Religious Freedom Institute, a one day seminar on religion in public schools.

This will be held April 17th, 2010 at The University of Colorado at Colorado Springs.

This seminar is for teachers, students, parents, administrators, staff, school board members, and open to the public.

If there is sufficient enrollment the program will be repeated on the 18th.

There will be hike this Sunday, April 18th will be Section 16 - also know as the Palmer loop trail. This is a easy to moderate hike to go up but quite steep coming back down. There is also a very nice side trail overlooking Crystal Park that we will probably want to take. There is a small amount of snow and ice on the main part of the loop going up to the top (Alan and I were there yesterday). There is more snow close to the overlook on the side trail. This should also be no problem if everyone is careful.
