An estimated 200 Fireside Elementary children proudly rode their bikes and many more participated by walking or carpooling to school. Fireside has been a Green Star school since 2011. Students, parents and staff continue to work hard towards a zero waste way of life. A contest was held with multiple other Boulder Valley School District schools to award a smoothie party to the entire student body of the school with the most bike riding participants. Students also registered for a chance to win a new helmet from Louisville Cyclery. Results of the contests are pending, however most would agree that the town of Louisville can be proud of the next generation showing tremendous pride in the care of their environment. </span></div>

<p>Public Demo of Emergency Communications June 23-24</p>
<p>Boulder, CO June 22, 2012 – Despite the Internet, cell phones, email and modern communications, every year whole regions find themselves in the dark. Tornadoes, fires, storms, ice and even the occasional cutting of fiber optic cables leave people without the means to communicate. In these cases, the one consistent service that has never failed has been Amateur Radio. These radio operators, often called “hams” provide backup communications for everything from the American Red Cross to FEMA and even for the International Space Station. Boulder’s “hams” will join with thousands of other Amateur Radio operators showing their emergency capabilities this weekend.</p>
<p>Over the past year, the news has been full of reports of ham radio operators providing critical communications during unexpected emergencies in towns across America including the Colorado wildfires, winter storms, tornadoes and other events world-wide. When trouble is brewing, Amateur Radio’s people are often the first to provide rescuers with critical information and communications. On the weekend of June 23-24, the public will have a chance to meet and talk with Boulder’s ham radio operators and see for themselves what the Amateur Radio Service is about as hams across the USA will be holding public demonstrations of emergency communications abilities.</p>
<p>This annual event, called "Field Day" is the climax of the week long "Amateur Radio Week" sponsored by the ARRL, the national association for Amateur Radio. Using only emergency power supplies, ham operators will construct emergency stations in parks, shopping malls, schools and backyards around the country. Their slogan, "When All Else Fails, Ham Radio Works” is more than just words to the hams as they prove they can send messages in many forms without the use of phone systems, internet or any other infrastructure that can be compromised in a crisis. More than 35,000 amateur radio operators across the country participated in last year's event.</p>
<p>"The fastest way to turn a crisis into a total disaster is to lose communications,” said Allen Pitts of the ARRL. “From the earthquake and tsunami in Japan to tornadoes in Missouri, ham radio provided the most reliable communication networks in the first critical hours of the events. Because ham radios are not dependent on the Internet, cell towers or other infrastructure, they work when nothing else is available. We need nothing between us but air.”</p>
<p>In the Boulder County area, the Boulder Amateur Radio Club will be demonstrating Amateur Radio at the shelter at Betasso Preserve on June 23rd and June 24th. They invite the public to come and see ham radio’s new capabilities and learn how to get their own FCC radio license before the next disaster strikes.</p>
<p>Amateur Radio is growing in the US. There are now over 700,000 Amateur Radio licensees in the US, and more than 2.5 million around the world. Through the ARRL’s Amateur Radio Emergency Services program, ham volunteers provide both emergency communications for thousands of state and local emergency response agencies and non-emergency community services too, all for free.</p>
<p>To learn more about Amateur Radio, go to <a href="http://www.emergency-radio.org">www.emergency-radio.org</a>. The public is most cordially invited to come, meet and talk with the hams. See what modern Amateur Radio can do. They can even help you get on the air!<br/> ###</p> Kids' Public Safety Daytag:www.mytowncolorado.com,2010-04-15:2021996:Topic:609872010-04-15T20:26:52.817ZLafayette Recreation Depthttps://www.mytowncolorado.com/profile/DebbieWilmot

<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">dog day care and overnight boarding facility, announces a dual fundraiser and open house</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">to benefit</font> <font color="#0000FF" face="TimesNewRoman"><font color="#0000FF" face="TimesNewRoman">Shelter-Me Photography</font></font> <font face="TimesNewRoman">and</font> <font color="#0000FF" face="TimesNewRoman"><font color="#0000FF" face="TimesNewRoman">HO-BO Care Boxer Rescue</font></font><font face="TimesNewRoman">. The event will be</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">held Saturday, April 10, 2010, at Rover Retreat’s Lafayette location.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">Beginning at 10 am and lasting through 1 pm in Lafayette, Colorado, the fundraiser</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">includes professional photographs of guests’ dogs taken by Shelter-Me Photography, a</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">nonprofit organization. The cost is $25.00 for the first dog and $5.00 for each additional</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">dog belonging to the same family.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">The goal of Shelter-Me Photography is to help animal shelters and rescue groups place</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">homeless animals by taking professional photographs of them. Therese Morin, owner of</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">Rover Retreat, is honored to host the fundraiser. “Shelter and rescue dogs are often</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">photographed in a kennel or when they first arrive, and they’re upset, scared, and in</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">shock. Shelter-Me brings out the best in each dog and captures it on film.”</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">Rover Retreat serves as a foster home for HO-BO Boxer Rescue, and currently has</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">several dogs available for adoption. Guests will also have the opportunity to meet these</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">foster dogs, and Morin is optimistic that some of them will find a home.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">“The boxers we’re fostering are ready for forever homes,” states Morin. “The open house</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">is a perfect chance for the fosters to meet people who love dogs, and we have plenty of</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">room for the foster dogs to play with their potential housemates.”</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">Those planning to attend are requested to RSVP with the number of dogs to be</font></p>

<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">A good photograph can mean the difference between life and death for a homeless</font></p>

<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">foster organizations throughout the United States.</font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">Shelter-Me Photography’s images have increased website traffic for every organization</font></p>

<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">HO-BO Care is a Colorado nonprofit group that cares for homeless boxers. HO-BO Care</font></p>

<p align="left"><font face="TimesNewRoman">starved or neglected. They need food, medical treatment, and especially an owner who is</font></p>
