Despite snowy weather, fire danger is still a possibility

The Manitou Springs Fire Department is reminding residents that, even though the Pikes Peak region has been seeing snow, we’re not free of fire danger.

“There remains a lack of moisture, low relative humidity (RH) and intermittent wind events that continue to dry out fuels,” MSFD Chief John Forsett said. “This creates conditions that allow for fire to start easily and grow quickly.”

Residents and visitors should remember that, per Ordinance 1722, whenever the National Weather Service issues a red flag warning for this area, Stage 2 burn ban orders will be in effect.

They include:

1 Open burning ban, defined as the prohibited use of any outside fire. This includes all campfires and warming fires, all solid fuel-burning fireplaces (fire pits, fire tables, chimineas, etc.) and cooking appliances (charcoal barbeque grills or pellet smokers and barbeque grills).

This ban excludes liquid propane-fueled or gas-fueled open-flame cooking devices (such as liquid propane barbeque grills or camping stoves) with a 10-foot separation from combustible materials (clearance not applicable to single-fam ily homes). The ban does not apply to compliant fireplaces and wood-burning stoves inside homes.

2 Outdoor smoking ban, defined as the prohibited use of any tobacco

AdAmAn Club celebrates

100th

anniversary 100th anniversary AdAmAn Club celebrates

The date was Dec. 22, 1922. Five Colorado Springs men, later known as the “The Frozen Five,” decided to attempt something unique and unprece dented in the history of the Pikes Peak region. The men would climb the snowy and icy slopes of Pikes Peak on New Year’s Eve and launch fireworks.

The moment marked the beginning of a holiday tradition that thousands of spectators throughout the region follow each year.

In celebration, the Manitou Springs Heritage Center and Museum and the Pikes Peak AdAmAn Club are proud to present “The Pikes Peak AdAmAn Club’s 100th Anniversary Exhibit” and to announce the release of the club’s new book, “AdAmAn: One Hundred Years of Ice, Wind, and Fire.”

The book, which is available at the Heritage Center, captures the spirit and perseverance of the club’s intrepid

group of climbers over the past century. Since its inaugural climb on New Year’s Eve in 1922, the club has added a new member each year (add a man) and has selected 104 members.

The “A”s in the club’s name and logo signify the mountains, and its membership list reads like a “Who’s Who” of Manitou Springs.

During the early days, members would light the wick of the fireworks before taking cover under metal bowl-like structures on the peak’s summit. The museum’s exhibit features mortars used to launch the fireworks and a control panel club members used in later years to safely ignite the fireworks show.

The exhibit also includes a canvas backpack used by member Don Lawrie (AdAmAn member No. 23) and a burka, face mask and goggles loaned by AdAmAn member Don Sanborn (No. 85). Another

The celebration will also feature several presentations at the museum, starting with “The Women of the AdAmAn Club” at 11 a.m. Saturday, Dec. 3. Manitou Springs Mayor John Graham (No. 59) will discuss the women of the AdAmAn Club, including his wife, Sue Graham (No. 79), the first woman to join the club.

Sue Graham has scaled 19 Colorado Fourteeners and served as unofficial spokesperson for the club. The talk will also feature several other women who have braved the ascent each year.

At 11 a.m. Saturday, Dec. 10, Don ald Sanborn will present “The History of the AdAmAn Club” and recount the challenges members face as they brave

the snow, ice and bitter cold each New Year’s Eve during their trek to the top of America’s Mountain.

The programming continues at 11 a.m. Saturday, Dec. 17, with local historian and author Eric Swab’s presentation of “Fred Barr: Pikes Peak Entrepreneur.” As one of the original “Frozen Five” founding members of the AdAmAn Club, Barr holds an iconic place in the eyes of the club’s members.

Each year, thousands of runners and hikers enjoy Barr Trail up to the summit of Pike’s Peak. It’s hard to think of anyone else who has had a larger and longer-lasting impact in our community.

Programming concludes at 1 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 17, with the “100th Anniversary of the AdAmAn Club” presentation by Dan Stuart (No. 82).

Be smart about bears — they’re hunting for food

Bears are about to get very active in Colorado as they search for food before hibernat ing this winter. At this time, they’re likely to forage for human food, trash and fruit trees in urban areas. Their instinct to eat can overcome any fear of humans.

They can sniff out potential food sources as much as five miles away. Barbeque grills, unsecured trash and pet food can lure them into cities. They have been able to open car doors when searching for food.

Manitou Springs has a strict policy about wildlife-resistant trash receptacles. Information: www.manitouspringsgov.com/437/GarbageRefuse.

CRANE opens public vote for

Art on the Avenue award

Courtesy of Creative Alliance Manitou Springs Surely you’ve noticed some not-so-subtle changes to the Manitou Springs public art collection during the past year.

Creative Alliance Manitou Springs has been making that happen throughout 2022, in honor of the city’s 2022 Sesquicentennial Celebration of “City Life and Who We Are.” CRANE doubled the usual number of curated works installed in a single year, and for the first time added a new mural to make a total of eight new installations.

To celebrate the newcomers to Art on the Avenue, CRANE is conducting an online vote to honor the public’s favorite new installation with the People’s Choice Award. The winning selection’s artist will receive a Creative Alliance cash price of $1,500 funded as part of a grant for the project from the Manitou Arts, Culture and Heritage (MACH) tax initiative.

CRANE’s Public Art Committee also will honor one of the new installations, making a $2,500 artistic excellence cash prize to an artist based on levels of visual impact, craftsmanship, emotional impact and thought-provoking.

“Our mission for CRANE is to support and uplift artists while enhancing our community,” said Audrey Gray, chair of the Public Art Committee and CRANE vice-chair. “To highlight our portion of Manitou’s Sesquicentennial Celebration, we will put more money into artists’ hands and engage our stakeholders by celebrating the art we have installed in the community over the past year.”

To vote or to learn more about Art on the Avenue, visit tiny.cc/artontheave and submit your vote by Dec.

12. The winners will be announced later that week.

Residents and visitors can take a walking tour of the latest installations by starting at the city’s Mobility Hub at 10 Old Man’s Trail, adjacent to Memorial Park. From there, stroll through Memorial Park and 7 Minute Spring Park, then head west through downtown.

The works range in material from stone to steel, wood to cast iron, and include paint, acrylic and tile, to complete the wide array of media.

The eight new installations, from east to west, are:

1 “The Dance of TAVA” mural by K8e Orr and Joel Newmiller, Mobility Hub at Hiawatha Gardens;

2 “The Serpent Waver” by Mel Whitcomb, 7 Minute Spring Park;

3 “Revivification” by Zach Tabb, 7 Minute Spring Park;

4 “Spiral Dance Flourish” by Harold Linke, 7 Minute Spring Park;

5 “Sandstorm” by Justin Deister, 735 Manitou Ave.;

6 “Magnify” by Kirk Seese, Shoshone Spring Park;

7 “Germination” by Gregory Fields, 934 Manitou Ave.; and

8 “Comforting Melody” by Antonio Flaminio, 962 Manitou Ave.

“This was an ambitious undertaking for CRANE, and we’re proud of how all of these works enhance Manitou Springs,” said Ralph Routon, CRANE board chair. “I’d like to recognize our executive director, Becca Sickbert, for her leadership role in the entire project. We also give our deep thanks to the city staff for their coopera tion and work in making the installations happen.”

This is the ballot you can vote on through Dec. 12.

Routes Outfitter is an outdoor-culture brand retail and services store serving the needs of bikers, hikers and runners. The store is a bonanza where customers can rent a bike, have their bike repaired, buy running gear and learn about upcoming hiking events.

The store offers bike rentals, demos and sales with premium Colorado-based brands such as Guerrilla Gravity and Revel. Also, it provides components and accessories from SRAM, RockShox, Maxxis, Shimano, PNW Components and other major brands, and carries Colorado brands including Altra, Lems, Osprey, RAD Apparel, Revel and Guerrilla Gravity.

Starting in January 2023, the store will offer backcountry ski packages.

Routes Outfitter is at 3131 W. Colorado Ave., directly across U.S. Highway 24 from Red Rock Canyon Open Space, around the corner from Garden of the Gods and 10 minutes from the Manitou Incline.

“Routes Outfitter exists to empower people towards wellness in the outdoors. We strive to be a relevant and meaningful brand of stores for outdoorists — riders, runners, hikers and more,” said Jason Mezey, who founded the company with his wife, Kristin.

“We desire to be a catalyst for growth in access, participation and stewardship in Colorado Springs and the areas around this awesome outdoor recreation-rich city.”

An outdoors buff, Mezey developed a passion for bikes while in his early 30s. In his youth, he tinkered with bikes and, after high school, worked at a Denver-area ski shop. His business strategy skills eventually grew from serving more than 12 years at an international nonprofits in the Colorado Springs area.

He and a friend often dreamed of ways they could turn their passion for the outdoors into something that could make a difference in the community while also growing a sustainable business.

Because it is the only shop that rented bikes in 2020, Routes Outfitter has developed a strong reputation for its services.

“Our bike repair services have grown significantly over the first two and a half years, and our (bicycle tune-up) packages have gained popularity. Desire for customizations has also grown,” Mezey said.

He said that having their supply chain disrupted by COVID-19 has been the company’s biggest obstacle. However, when people re-discovered their love for the outdoors, the high demand for outdoor equipment skyrocketed.

“The supply chain for bikes and other items virtually dried up. Bikes, bike components and accessories became hard to get for much of 2020 and 2021,” Mezey said.

“People were generally understanding, but our goal is to enable people to get back outdoors as quickly as we can. Delayed parts kept us from serving the way we desire to serve. We got creative though, as we often do, and provided access to our demo fleet at discounted prices.”

Routes Outfitter has made many new friends since opening its doors, Mezey said.

“Our goal is to provide exceptional quality, professionalism and unparalleled kindness in service to everyone who walks through our doors. Relationships are naturally a result from that kind of mentality, and it’s hugely rewarding to see those continue to form,” he said.

Many out-of-towners seeking to rent bikes and explore the region during the summer also turn to Routes Outfitter for its services. Also, many locals rent bikes for visiting family and friends so they can share their outdoor expe riences.

“Many visitors stop in because they need good shoes to hike the local spots like Garden of the Gods and the Incline. Since we opened our doors, we’ve performed service on nearly 2,000 bikes, rented equipment more than 2,000 times, outfitted almost 1,000 pairs of feet with shoes and have served well over 7,000 people between our two locations,” Mezey said.

The other location is in Monument.

“Our rental/demo fleet is built around Colorado brands like Guerrilla Gravity, Revel and FattE-Bikes. They’re high quality, premium bikes that are several levels above a typical rental bike in the area. People are often surprised that they’re able to rent a bike with a retail price of well over $5,000.”

For people who are in the market to buy (especially from online brands selling direct to consumer), being able to try different models and categories helps them decide which bike fits their needs. It takes the risk out of buying something based solely on pictures and information on the internet, Mezey said.

“We are also the only premier mountain bike-rental store that offers a rent-and-ride experience. No other store in town has accessibility to world class trails directly across the street. Currently (we) have two thoughtfully located outdoor stores specializing in products and services related to outdoor riding, running and hiking,” Mezey said.

The Colorado Springs Routes Outfitter is open 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, 9 a.m.-6 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, noon-5 p.m. Sundays and is closed Mondays. Information: routesoutfitter.com or 719-358-9790.

MACH grant applications for 2023 being accepted

With an enhanced website to expedite the process, the Manitou Arts, Culture, and Heritage Board is accepting grant applications for 2023, MACH Board Chair Neale Minch has announced.

Applicants may submit their funding requests between now and Jan. 6, 2023, after which the board will evaluate submissions, learn the exact amount of available funding from 2022 MACH tax revenues and make grant recommendations in late February for Manitou Springs City Council approval.

As set up in the MACH tax initiative voters approved in November 2019, 66 percent of grant funds will go to designated Tier 1 entities: Carnegie Library, Hiawatha Gardens, Manitou Art Center, Manitou Springs Heritage Center and the Miramont Castle Museum.

The other 34 percent goes to Tier 2 competitive grants, available to residents, nonprofits, businesses and others to assist in programs and events that benefit Manitou.

Last year, MACH funds produced about $475,000 in grants — with $324,043 going to the Tier 1 recipients and about $150,000 for Tier 2 grants.

Early estimates suggest the amount for 2023 grants will decrease slightly.

Grant applicants can access the online application form at bit.ly/ MACHGrants or go to the MACH page on the city website, www.tinyurl. com/MACHBoard, and click on the “MACH Application Forms” link. You can set up a personal login, allowing you to work on and save unfinished applications until they’re ready.

Applicants for mini-grants ($750 or less) will complete a simpler form that does not require a detailed budget. Applications for more than $750 must also include a budget of projected revenues and expenses.

Any individuals or nonprofits who received MACH grants last year must turn in 2022 project completion reports before being considered for 2023 grants.

HELP WANTED

The Manitou Arts, Culture, and Heritage Board also is looking for new members, with vacancies open for two alternates. Applicants must be Manitou residents, ideally with some awareness of the MACH tax initiative. If interested, email MACHBoard@ manitouspringsco.gov.

Happy Cats Haven – Pet of the Week

Hello, we’re Bonnie and Nina, bonded BFFs looking for our furever family together. Bonnie is the adorable gray tabby and white gal with soulful yellow-green eyes. And I’m Nina, a tiny gray and white girl with expressive yellow eyes lined in eyeliner. We were brought to Happy Cats when our human could no longer care for us. Despite some tough times, though, we love to play, especially with wand toys! When playtime is over, it’s nap time and you’ll find us cuddling together! We’ll do best in a quiet home without other pets or kids. Our adoption fees together are $120 with the Friends and Family discount, sponsored by Petco Love. That includes our spays, vaccinations, microchips, food and litter starter kits and a free well-kitty checkup each.

Humane Society – Pet of the Week

Hi there! My name is Castle, and I’m waiting for my royal family to walk in the doors. I’m a 7-year-old black and brown German shepherd that is a little nervous at first and will need some time adjusting to my new home. But once I’m comfortable, I love to run and play fetch outside! Tennis balls and being petted by my human friends are the best things in the world! Other dogs can make me uncomfortable at first, so I’ll do best with slow introductions to dogs already in your home. My adoption is $75 and I come with a voucher for a veterinary exam, vaccinations, 30 days of pet health insurance and a microchip, and I am already neutered. Just ask for Castle (1603230).
