Thank you so much to our Trustee Tietz for organizing this!

Trustee Tietz posts:
I hope you're all having a wonderful day! Last week I created a poll to see if there was any interest in residents providing donated lights to assist in decorating downtown for the season. Many were excited to assist so here is the follow through with additional information and a link to order. I am asking that you only purchase this lighting set so we can keep them consistent.

After discovering that our town has minimal and outdated holiday lights, I felt inspired to create an opportunity for us to brighten up Main Street without dipping into taxpayer dollars.

I've set up a live link where you can easily purchase a strand of lights to donate! Your contributions will help light up our community and will become the property of the Town of Wellington for future festive displays.

If I can get 20 - 30 strands donated I will personally fund an installer to come and set them in place for the holidays. The goal is to get the strands donated/delivered and installed for the Holiday parade on December 7th !

Let's come together to make our town sparkle this holiday season! 🎄✨

Thank you for your support! 💙

Thank you so much to our partners at the Colorado Department of Local Affairs for attending and presenting at our annual Open House last night. Every seat was filled and we're thrilled to follow up with the announcement of our new 2025 Board members!

We enjoyed our time in Wellington last night for the annual Wellington CO Main Street Program community dinner and awards. It was nice to present to the program's supporters about how we support them at the state level. Dinner was provided by many local restaurants, who donated signature items from their menus. We had time for some great conversations with the attendees, and we cannot say enough about the wonderful leadership and supporters of the program. It will be exciting to support their efforts on some big upcoming projects. Stay tuned! Colorado Department of Local Affairs Main Street America History Colorado
