Tennis Anyone?

In the interest of full disclosure, let it be known that the author of this article is married to the Mayor.
The Lyons Board of Trustees (BOT) spent a little over an hour and a half in a workshop Monday evening, hammering out their final (hopefully) strategies for the Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with Boulder County. The presentation by Staff included colored maps, keys, and lively discussions. At stake are what properties will be in the “primary planning area,” which ones will be in the “secondary planning area,” who will have “influence over what,” who gets “veto power over whom,” and “how long” the term of the IGA will be. Then they started their regular meeting.

About Town with Lavern Johnson February 23, 2012
Ah, President’s Day, a holiday to honor all our Presidents. The TV tells the life of several: what they went through, some rich, others poor, some killed, etc. You do have to admire anyone who is willing to be President to try to rule the United States with all its problems, but we can be glad we live here, as most other countries are worse. They say: “Freedom, isn’t Free,” How true! And, of course, if we don’t like the USA we can move elsewhere!Login to read more: About Town with Lavern Johnson February 23, 2012

Rising Need For Food Assistance
By Eve Hersh
With grocery bags in hand, people gather around the Lyons Community Church on Wednesday afternoons, waiting to get their free groceries. These Lyons locals are some of the many Boulder County residents who often face the hard decision of choosing between heating their homes and feeding their families. Unfortunately, support for these people in the form of donations to food pantries seems to be dwindling, and the Lyons Community Food Pantry has felt the slump.About Town with Lavern Johnson February 16, 2011

It is still cold and snowy, with more snow to come. A good time for the Polar Bear Club. brrrrr
Thanks to Bill Martin, who delivered my Meals on Wheels this morning, consisting of Chicken Cordon Bleu and a package of Sweetheart Candies and to Mary Lou of The Lyons Golden Gang, who sent along a “Marshmallow Melt” to brighten our day! Valentine’s Day is always sad for me as it is for other widows or widowers. Mr. LaVerne always brought a box of candy and put it on my typewriter.

What Happens if Your Social Security or Pension Benefits Are Cut?
By Doug Carey
Last November American Airlines filed for bankruptcy protection. Many of American’s employees are in a defined-benefit pension plan, which means American Airlines promised them a certain amount of money each year in retirement, regardless of what the markets do. But promises such as this are fleeting, as can be seen by the infighting going on now between employees of the airline and executives.
