Commemorate the Essence of the 4th: Refreshed Version of Our Site Salutes Local Heroes
In the latest edition of North Forty News, the spotlight shines on the unsung heroes of Northern Colorado, as the Hometown Heroes are celebrated for embodying the spirit and values of the community. Despite the specific individuals not being detailed in the search results, this special edition honours those local heroes who make Northern Colorado a unique and special place to live.
The July 4th edition of the publication is a celebration of everything that makes Northern Colorado home, emphasising community pride and local traditions associated with the Fourth of July. Publisher Blaine Howerton reflects on family, fireworks, and the deeper meaning behind Northern Colorado’s Independence Day celebrations, reinforcing a shared sense of belonging in the region.
This special edition is designed to both recognise local service and embrace the festive spirit of the holiday. Among the highlights of the issue, readers can find a full calendar of summer events, a roundup of parades, fireworks, concerts, and community events. One such event is Trace Bundy's acoustic benefit concert, which is previewed at Fort Collins Nursery on pages 14-15.
Aside from the Hometown Heroes cover story (pages 12-13), the issue also provides tips on the best small trees for Northern Colorado yards (pages 8-9). For those planning to attend Cheyenne Frontier Days, the rodeo qualifiers are heating up (page 22), and local law enforcement is increasing DUI enforcement for the holiday weekend (page 23).
As we approach the holiday weekend, it's a great time to take a moment to appreciate our neighbours, volunteers, and families in our community. Blaine Howerton even shares his family-tested Ravioli Casserole recipe in the latest Publisher's Plate (page 19).
