Erie Events October 25th-26th

What an amazing weekend it was. The weather is beautiful, if I remember correctly, we had snow about this time last year. I'm hoping the sun stays out for trick-or-treating on Friday.

Saturday was the 26th Annual Eerie Erie hosted by the Optimist Club. This was a huge event! Over 600 participants joined in the fun. Many of the runners were even from out of town, I was pleasantly surprised to hear that people from outside Colorado knew of this great event in our great town!

There was also the Trunk or Treat event at the Erie Community Center that brought in a huge crowd. I wasn't able to attend this but the parking was insane. My neighbors informed me that they didn't have enough candy for all the kids and families that attended. I guess the town didn't realize how big of a hit their events are.

I also noticed as I was driving into my community the other day that we are getting our very own Walgreens and the construction has already begun. This will be such an amazing addition to our community. We already have some great services available from local business people but this will be filling in the gaps. We'll only have a 5 minute (if that) drive to get some cold medicine late at night. It will be great!

I'm so proud of our town, it is thriving beyond belief and I know that we will continue to have success in the coming years! I'm happy to introduce those of you not familiar with the area, you'd feel right at home!
