Here it is the beginning of September; fall is here, it is getting dark sooner, and at least the nights will be cooler. It was truly a hot summer, sixty-three days with the temperature over 90! The hottest ever! We hope to get some rain this fall, and the leaves will be turning.

A VERY BUSY WEEK WENT BY AND WE ALL MADE IT!
A great day for Lyons to be on the USA Pro Challenge cycling race, which brought a lot of folks to town, and gave the Town a lot of good publicity! Great job Chamber members, Town staff, and all who helped! Special thanks to Chamber members Lee Hall, Laurie Kennedy, Lou Thackston and Kheli Mason. Those yellow shirts from St. Vrain Market hit the spot! I understand that Lyons’ Julian Kyer was one of the bikers.

Another week gone by! School starts this Thursday, the Folks Festival Festival starts on Friday.
We hope the weather will stay cool. What a hot summer we have had, over 90 days of over 90 degrees! The hottest in 54 years! This global warming is bad for the universe! What can we do about the changing of the world!

Town activities consisted of lots of ball games, the OutdoorAbout Town, August 2, 2012
Yes, another hot week gone by, but luckily a little rain. The cornfields are drying up, but they say there is a good wheat crop. What will the farmers do when they have to borrow money for seed, and then don’t have a crop? It is a dire situation. Let it rain!
