🌟 Join us in shining a light on Spanish Peaks International Celtic Music Festival! 🌟

Here’s a message from the nonprofit themselves:

Mission of SPICMF
Our Vision Statement reads, β€œThe premier international Celtic Music Festival Destination, located at the foot of the Spanish Peaks.” The Spanish Peaks International Celtic Music Festival (SPICMF) is that, a Celtic music festival, but really so much more. We are more accurately a four day β€˜destination-retreat’ where internationally respected artists and scholars not only perform in concert, but share
their musical talent and knowledge in a full range of upwards of fifty plus workshops, demonstration talks, and open (free) singing, dancing and playing sessions for all. Perhaps most importantly, we provide musical and cultural education at no charge to the schools in our county.
We express this in our Mission Statement: β€œThe SPICMF celebrates the living legacy of the worldwide Celtic cultures and traditions with opportunities to experience the diversity of Celtic spirit through creative interaction, education and performances.”

Here's a message from the nonprofit themselves:
Walsenburg Youth Football also known as Walsenburg Warriors was a big asset to our local youth for many years! Unfortunately due to the pandemic and the build of the new school causing demolition of our equipment shed, the program has not been able to take place. Our mission is to bring this program back to life for the youth in our Community! We can not do so without the financial help from our community. This program offers youth tackle football for grades 2nd-6th for Huerfano County youth. In the past our program had a total of 34-40 players for the 13 week season! Thank you in advance for your generosity & Happy Holidays 😊

🌟 Join us in shining a light on Scenic Highway of Legends!🌟

Here's a message from the nonprofit themselves:
The Scenic Highway of Legends (SHOL) has been an integral part of Huerfano and Las Animas County’s tourism for more than 30 years. America’s Byways are a distinctive collection of American roads that demonstrate certain unique, intrinsic qualities identified as archaeological, cultural, historic, natural, recreational and/or scenic. In addition to providing exploration opportunities for travelers, this designation brings increased awareness and additional economic benefits to the region.
The most recent analysis shows a cumulative statewide economic impact of nearly $4.8 billion over a six-year period, with the Scenic Highway of Legends providing nearly $180 million in economic benefit for the region.
The Scenic Highway of Legends would use funds raised during the Twelve Days of Giving to reprint their ever popular marketing brochures, which would then be re-stock at all visitor centers and businesses in the Spanish Peaks region, to continue to share the beauty of our Scenic Highway of Legends!

🌟 Join us in shining a light on Huerfano County 4H and Fair Board!🌟

Here's a message from the nonprofit themselves:
In 1972 a group of local ranchers got together and came up with the funds to build the Huerfano County Fairgrounds and the first board was formed. Today, the 4-H/FFA program is still one of the largest youth organizations in Huerfano County.
The Huerfano County Fair Board has two main functions. Our first responsibility is to put on the five-day Huerfano County Fair, which is held during the second week in August each year. The fair is for all 4-H and FFA youth, countywide, ages 8-18. There is a large variety of projects that range from baking to beef. These programs teach the children who are enrolled in either 4-H or FFA responsibility, money management, profit and loss, leadership skills, and the value of hard work and dedication. Our second responsibility is the care, maintenance, and improvements of the fairground facilities.

But they can't do it alone. We need your help to support their cause and make an even bigger impact!

🌟 Join us in shining a light on Walsenburg Mining Museum!🌟

Here's a message from the nonprofit themselves:
Visitors to the Walsenburg Mining Museum really enjoy getting locked up. Our cell block with original iron jail doors may be the best "selfie" spot in downtown Walsenburg! Visitors to the historic 1896 jailhouse are claiming the WMM is a "jewel of a museum". We record history with photographs, mining equipment in a mine shaft, a tent representing life in a tent colony, an art collection depicting men and families from mining camps, the historic jail, and the influence of the railroad on the mining industry. While the museum's main objective remains to remember and honor the coal miners and their families, our contents continue to grow and we now include much more for our visitors. The museum continues to operate with a volunteer staff.
