GENERAL INFORMATION
From the Friends
PO Box 313, Longmont, CO 80502 www.friendslongmont.org
This fall marks the start of the Friends of the Senior Center annual donation drive.
Donations provide the resources to support ongoing and needed services for the
Longmont Senior Center (LSC). These include facility and program enhancements,
support services, unfunded requests and numerous other programs. Through the years,
donations have been the key to the expansion and improvement of the Senior Center.
The Friends are the stewards for these donations. This is a board of 12 diverse volunteers who promote the annual
campaign and manage donation funds. They receive support and advice from the staff and Advisory Board
members. The Friends meet on a monthly basis to review the current financial status and any unfunded requests.
This year, the Friends have applied for a number of grants and have received a total of $3,500 thus far which will
enhance the commitments that have already been made. Donations can come from individuals or businesses and
all are welcome whether they are large or small. There are many forms in which a donation can be made including;
cash, stocks, bonds, bequests, estate gifts, gift annuities, and many others. Contact your financial advisor for the
method that is best for you. Donations may also be made in memory or in honor of a friend or loved one. Your
contribution may be tax deductable. Donors are recognized in the GO newsletter and the Donor Book located in
the Senior Center lobby. Your generosity will ensure the continued success of the numerous programs and services
available to older adults via the Longmont Senior Center. Donations may be mailed to the Friends of the Longmont
Senior Center, Inc., P.O. Box 313, Longmont, CO 80502, left at the LSC front desk, or made via PayPal at the

On a nearby portion of the South Platte River, trading posts may have had a short tenure, but their names live
on. Four competing sites were built and abandoned between 1836 and 1845. Forts Lupton, Vasquez, St. Vrain
and Jackson were already relics when the gold seekers followed the Platte River Road to Colorado in 1859.
These commercial enterprises were part of the much larger and highly competitive North American fur trade.

Nathan Meeker founded the Union Colony which would become the present day
city of Greeley. Before coming to Colorado he was the agricultural writer for
Horace Greeley’s newspaper. Following his success with the Union Colony he
was appointed agent at the White River Agency on the Ute Reservation in western
Colorado. He was often in conflict with the Ute people and was killed in what
became known as the Meeker Massacre. It was this event which resulted in the
Utes losing most of their remaining land in Colorado.
