By Erik Rusnak Whether large or small, smooth or knotted, white, or the tradition-al orange, pumpkins flourish in western Colorado and can pro-vide a fun and festive addition to your garden. With the vast varieties avail-able in Colorado, gardeners have access to pumpkin seeds to suit near-ly every need. Alt-hough all types of pumpkin are tech-nically edible, many growers fa-vor varieties that are specifically for use in the kitchen. Pumpkin varieties that are the best to cook with will typically have a larger amount of flesh and are generally smaller than their orna-mental counterparts, which are ideal for carving. Many seed vari-eties actually have “pie” in their name, a homage to one of Amer-

ica's most beloved fall treats. Beyond the well-known pie, pumpkin can be used in count-less other dishes including pas-tas, breads, soups, and even festive cocktails!

For gardeners that only wish to grow ornamental pump-kins, the sky is the limit as far as color, texture, and size. When conjuring an image of a pumpkin in their mind, many people would probably see a relatively smooth,

bright orange pumpkin that could weigh around ten pounds – a variety such as the Connecticut Field or “classic” pumpkin which grows well on the Western Slope with minimal effort. For those

wanting a bit more of the extreme—giant pumpkin varieties can be planted, and can be a challenge and a true labor of love for those who tend to them (the record weight for a gi-ant pumpkin in Colora-do stands at 1685 pounds!) No matter which type of pumpkin is chosen, some grow-ing facts are the same. Pumpkins love warm,

sunny growing seasons, rich soil, and plenty of room to spread out. For many more tips and tricks on growing pumpkins in Colorado, visit the CSU Extension site.

Press Release STATEWIDE - Colorado Parks and Wildlife will celebrate Colorado Day, Monday, Aug. 7 by offering free en-trance at all 41 state parks. Colorado Day was created by the state legisla-ture to mark the anniversary of state-hood, granted in 1876 by President Ulysses S. Grant. Free entrance at the state parks is an annual Colorado Day tradition. Although the state celebrates its 141 birthday on Aug. 1, state parks will only offer free entrance on Aug. 7. "Colorado Day is an opportuni-ty for everyone to get outside and ex-perience the diverse natural beauty and recreational activities that all of the 41 state parks have to offer," said Gary Thorson, assistant director for infor-mation and education for Colorado Parks and Wildlife. "This day is also the agency's opportunity to say 'thank you' to all of our residents and visitors who enjoy our state parks for their continued support." All other fees, including camping and reservations will re-main in effect on Aug. 7. The state parks, scattered throughout Colorado, showcase the state's diverse landscapes, includ-ing the prairies of the eastern plains at John Martin Reservoir State Park, the alpine beauty of the mountains at Sylvan Lake State Park near Eagle and the unique geological landscapes at Rox-borough State Park. There are also plenty of opportunities to enjoy Col-orado's rivers at James M. Robb-Colorado River State Park near

Grand Junction, the Arkansas Head-waters Recreation Area in Salida and Yampa River State Park near Craig. There’s plenty of outdoor fun at the reservoirs at Trinidad Lake State Park, North Sterling State Park, Lathrop State Park near Walsenburg and Nav-ajo State Park near Durango. Chatfield State Park and Cher-ry Creek State Park are the most visit-ed parks, but Colorado Day is a chance to sample the trails at Lory State Park near Fort Collins and the beauty at Rifle Falls State Park and Paonia State Park. There are a huge variety of recreational opportunities at all Colora-do State Parks. Float your boat or kay- ak, or raft a river. View diverse wildlife

and a multitude of bird species. Catch fish, hike, explore by geocaching, ride some of the best OHV trails in the state or go horseback riding. Teach your children to fish, camp or learn about nature. Climb a challenging rock face, fly a kite or ride your bike. Come play all day, enjoy a picnic and stay for the sunset. This Colorado Day, be sure to get out to a state park for a fun-filled day that the whole family can enjoy. Colorado Parks and Wildlife manages 41 state parks, more than 300 state wildlife areas, all of Colora-do's wildlife, and a variety of outdoor recreation. For more information go to cpw.state.co.us.

KNOW THE RULES AND KNOW YOUR LIMITS

By Colorado Parks and Wildlife Hunting is challenging. Not only must you understand the habits of the ani-mal you are hunting, you must also understand regulations, laws govern-ing public and private lands and your own limitations. The following are some re-minders and things to consider before you start your hunt.

• To obtain a license, all hunters born after 1948 must present a Hunter Education Card from Colo-rado or another state.

• You must know the specific rules that apply to the Game Manage-ment Unit in which you are hunt-ing. If you violate rules you can be cited and fined.

• Be sure to know where you are hunting. You can only hunt in the Game Management Unit that your license specifies.

• As you are hunting be aware of buildings, homes, roads, and your overall surroundings. Make sure you know what is behind an animal before you shoot. A bullet shot from a high-powered rifle can easi-ly carry for more than 1,000 yards.

• Make sure that someone at home knows where you are hunting, your vehicle's license plate number and where you are staying.

• Weather in the fall can change rapidly in Colorado. A day that starts sunny and warm could end with a snow storm. Be sure you are prepared for all weather condi-tions.

• Make sure you can recognize the symptoms of hypothermia in your hunting partners.

• Know how to get back to your camp.

• Cell phone service is not reliable in the mountains. Don't expect to contact someone by phone if you are lost or if your vehicle is stuck.

• Make sure to drink plenty of water. Colorado's dry air and high altitude can quickly dehydrate you and deplete your energy stores.

• Be sure to consult Colorado Parks and Wildlife regulations to under-stand antler requirements for tak-ing bull elk.

• Do not attempt to shoot at animals that are in areas where you could not retrieve the meat. Know your physical limits.

• If you harvest an ani-mal, make sure the carcass is properly tagged. Tags must remain with all pro-cessed meat.

• If you transfer an ani-mal killed by another hunter, ensure that it is properly tagged. You could be cited for illegal transport of a game animal even if someone else made the error.

• Do not strap a har-vested animal on the outside of your car.

• Operate ATVs and OHVs responsibly. The vehicles must be registered in Colorado--even if it is regis-

tered in another state. Off-road vehicles can cause resource dam-age. Be sure to know the local travel management rules for public lands. OHV's also disturb animals and other hunters.

• If you see hunters violating laws, please report the actions to a wild-life officer or other law enforce-ment agency. Actions by a few hunters can reflect badly on all hunters.

By Reverend Buddy Cook MONTROSE - On August 13

th the First

Church of the Nazarene will celebrate 100 years of ministry to the Montrose community. On February 18, 1917, the Montrose Naza-rene Mission organized in a small storefront on Cascade Avenue with Rev. M.R. Dut-ton as pastor along with nine charter members: Mrs. R.A. Leisy, Mr. and Mrs. A.H. Eggleston, Mrs. Mary Frazier, Mrs. J.F. Blanken-baker, Mrs. W.S. Foster, Mrs. W.N. Carkhuff, Mrs. Anna Christianson, Mrs. Dianne Mobrey. The church was later incorpo-rated on March 16, 1920. Over the years, God has given the church many good people including Whipple Chester, former city editor with the Montrose Daily Press. The first meeting place of the church was in the old telephone build-

ing on North Cascade Avenue. At a later date, the services were moved to a rented hall next to the W.C.T.U.

building on Main Street and from there to a rented hall on the cor- ner of Main and Selig. This required having some Sunday School classes in

the old court house which was located across the street in the present loca-tion of Ace Hardware. Under the lead-

ership of Rev. and Mrs. J. F. Ransom, the church greatly prospered and the First Church of the Nazarene was built at 30 South Selig (currently the location of The Journey church) and dedicat-ed in 1924. A great need for larg-er facilities prompted the church to start a building fund and twelve lots on Mesa and South Twelfth streets were purchased in 1966. On June 3, 1967, through the leader-ship of Rev. Willis J. Lambert, a financial campaign with the theme “Building by Faith for Tomorrow” was launched. The congregation responded

by pledging $20,000 to be paid in three years. Construction of the current building at 12

th and Mesa began in No-

vember 1967 and services were held

MONTROSE CHURCH CELEBRATES (cont’d from page 4)

in the new church on Mother’s Day, May 12, 1968 Lots of things have changed in the last 100 years and the Montrose of today looks decidedly different than the Montrose of 1917. However, from a store front location to the present day church facility the people of the First Church of the Naza-rene continue to reach out with love to share Jesus with their friends and neighbors in the Montrose area. A desire to become a “Loving, Growing, Family of God” is at the heart of the peo-ple called Nazarenes. The anniver-sary celebration be-gins with coffee and donuts at 9 AM fol-lowed by a Sunday Morning service at 10:00 AM which will feature former pastor Dr. Bob Broadbooks who is currently the

USA/Canada Regional Director for the International Church of the Nazarene. The celebration will conclude with a potluck dinner and time for visiting in the afternoon. The First Church of the Naza-

rene and current pastor Rev. Buddy Cook warmly invite the Montrose com-munity to join them in their celebration.

Press Release STATEWIDE - Colorado Parks and Wildlife offers free park entrance to active-duty military and veterans dur-ing the entire month of August as a result of House Bill 15-1045, signed into law May 27, 2015. “We are very appreciative of Colorado’s military community and encourage them to take advantage of this offer to get out and enjoy the rec-reational opportunities within state parks,” said CPW Director, Bob Broscheid. Archery, boating, rock climb-ing, hiking, geocaching and wildlife-viewing, along with well-equipped na-ture centers and picnic areas are just a few of the options available for service members to relax and recharge. Addi-tional outdoor recreation opportunities can be found in the Parks Guide. CPW encourages eligible indi-viduals to get their pass in advance at any CPW office or state park to avoid delays at the gate on a planned recre-ation day. Veterans and active-duty mili-tary personnel (including active duty, Reserve and National Guard mem-bers) can obtain a military hang-tag pass valid for free admission during the month of August by showing the CPW parks staff one of the following:

• Active or retired military identifica-

tion,

• DD Form 2,

• DD Form 2765,

• DD214,

• Veterans Affairs medical card,

• A current Colorado Driver’s Li-

cense or state issued identification card with the veteran seal printed on it.

Once eligibility is confirmed, the military hang-tag pass is issued to the service member. The hang-tag pass is valid when hung from the rear-view mirror of a service member occu-pied vehicle, and admits all passen-gers of that vehicle. Though park entrance fees are waived for veterans and active-duty personnel in the month of August, ac-tivities like fishing and camping will still require a valid license and permit. Go to http://cpw.state.co.us/placestogo/

parks/Pages/parkMap.aspx to locate a state park near you. Free access for veterans and active duty military is slated to contin-ue every year in which general fund dollars are appropriated by the Gen-

LOCAL ACTORS TEMPTED BY SHAKESPEARE’S REVENGE AND ROMANCE Press Release OURAY - When Jake Abell was a Ouray School student about 10 years ago, his delighted introduction to Shakespeare consisted of tour-ing productions from the Denver-based theater company No Holds Bard. Now he finds him-self playing Antonio in “The Tempest” alongside many of the same actors he so admired a decade ago. UpstART Theater and the Wright Opera House are proud to present a No Holds Bard pro-duction of William Shakespeare's The Tempest, with performances Friday through Monday, July 28-31. This will be the ninth Shakespeare play brought to Ouray County audiences by the company since 2006. No Holds Bard still draws much of its professional cast from Den-ver and beyond. But its founders, John and Kate Kissingford, moved to Ouray four years ago, and this year much of the cast and crew are talented locals. "The mariners and magical beings in this play, for instance," John points out, "are an ensemble of Ouray

County children who range in age from 6 to 16. Our musicians, the Wohlrabes, and our choreographer, Melissa De-

muth, teach performance in our com-munity. And we're welcoming Morgan Wright back to our cast, after his mar-velous Tybalt in last year's ‘Romeo and Juliet’.” No Holds Bard "performs Shakespeare as you've never seen it before—the way Shakespeare's own actors did it. We perform in general light, with minimal sets, with great, fast-paced, energetic acting and lots of au-dience interaction,” say the founders. The play is sure to please, as described by the synopsis on the Wright website, “After 12 years strand- ed on an island with his daughter, de-

posed Duke Prospero is ready. With the help of his magical servant Ariel, he summons a great Tempest to ship-

wreck those who plotted against him, and once he has them in his power, orchestrates a sur-prising redemption for all of them... and for himself. One of Shakespeare's last and most beloved stories, The Tempest contains revenge and romance and ridiculous hijinx and won-drous magic.”

The Wright Opera House and UpstART Theater present a No Holds Bard production of Shakespeare's “The Tempest” with performances Friday through Monday, July 28, 29, and 31 at 7:30 p.m. and July 30 at 4 p.m. Audi-ences are invited for the magic, ship-wreck, love, vengeance, justice, and mercy, performed with the energy, in-tensity, and delight that Shakespeare intended. Tickets are $15 in advance (by July 27) or $20 at the door. For information, go to TheWrightOperaHouse.org and www.UpstARTmoves.org.

I might be a pretty picky eater, but the list of foods that I would love to be stranded on an island with are endless. I have an addiction

to sweet tea, bread, cheese, desserts, and basically anything that isn’t healthy for me. You can’t see my face right now, but I am very excited to talk about foods that I love! Food is one thing that nearly everyone gets excited about. You might love your filtered fizzy water—I mean to the point that you salivate when you think of it, others might drool at the thought of a half-pound juicy cheeseburger. Whatever the food or drink may be, it’s something that cer-tainly brings us joy. I could do a lot of research and talk to doctors about the scientific reasons food makes us happy, but instead of losing you at “macro-nutrients” I am going to talk about food in layman’s terms. Holidays, weddings, birthdays, promotions, retirements, babies, new homes, sports, and even funerals are all things we congregate over food for. We eat roughly three meals a day, and snack in between. When we get a new neighbor, we take them cupcakes. When someone is sick, we take them a big batch of lasagna. FOOD! We live to eat! I know that some people can’t function without coffee. I mean...they literally say that. Then, when they get their coffee, they claim to feel better and more alert. Yay! Happiness! What does your company break room look like when someone brings in a box of doughnuts or a 6-foot sub? Everyone flocks like starving vultures to the table because what work day isn’t better with a little free food?

Speaking of free food, how exciting is it to score a free sample at a grocery store?! That one little free bite of banana yogurt satisfaction is enough to brighten your entire shop-ping experience. And, when you’re happy, you tend to spend more, right? How about dating? I would venture to say that nearly all first dates are focused on some form of food or drink. For starters, it gives your hands something to do and you guys some-thing to talk about. But let’s be honest, eating is something everyone has in common, so what better way to start a possible relationship than sharing a bowl of chips and salsa together? If we’re not eating food we’re either shopping for it, expelling it, or trying to burn it off. Our lives revolve around eating. We are certainly one lucky nation to have so much food at our disposal. But, without even looking to another country, there are many, many people going hungry right now. Luckily, we are also a very giving nation and if someone seeks it, there is food available to them at local food banks. I don’t like comparing 1st world luxuries with others. If someone is able to afford a $100 steak dinner, let them enjoy it. I don’t believe someone who is able to indulge in the finer things in life should feel bad about doing so. I only hope they have a com-passionate heart and when they

feel compelled to give...they give. Please check out these sites to find out how you can help a hungry per-son. No one should go to bed starving.
