SUMMARY:Monument Hill Kiwanis Korner
DESCRIPTION:Monument Hill Kiwanis Club (MHKC) raises funds to enable our mission of Making a Difference for Youth and Our Community by conducting a one-day craft fair which will be held on December 6th between 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM. \n This year’s fair will be held in Bear Creek Elementary School\, 1330 Creekside Dr.\, Monument (the intersection of Creekside and Leather Chaps).  Vendors purchase space to present their wares for sale and local churches prepare baked goods for purchase by craft fair patrons.  Entry is free but patrons are requested to bring a non-perishable food item that will be donated to Tri-Lakes Cares (T-LC).   \n MHKC volunteers set up and break down the display area at Grace Best for the event and assist vendors when requested.  Volunteers also provide assistance during the event to vendors or patrons.  MHKC volunteers contribute about 100 hours annually to this project. \n Last year’s North Pole Craft Fair drew nearly 2\,000 visitors. They shopped 75 vendors (including Kiwanian Jim Taylor\, shown here whose net profit from the sale of wooden toys are aggregated with booth space rentals). The net proceeds of their booth fees will be used to support programs to benefit youth in the Tri-Lakes area. This “Cookie Walk” will be hosted by Tri-Lakes United Methodist Church and will benefit T-LC.  Additionally\, last year T-LC received cash donations of more than $1\,000\, 653 lbs. of food as well as toys and games. Additionally\, “4 Kidz” received donations of new and lightly used sports equipment.  All of these donations will have a significant impact on the Christmas experience for the families served by T-LC. \n See the MHKiwanis.org website for more information and join us for a meeting to see what we’re all about.  See ad on previous page.

SUMMARY:Palmer Lake Outdoor Classic
DESCRIPTION:Now entering its 5th year\, the Palmer Lake Outdoor Classic has become a cherished tradition and small-town community event. Founded as a non-profit event\, its mission is simple yet powerful: grow the game of hockey in the Tri-Lakes area. \nSet against the stunning backdrop of Palmer Lake and its iconic mountaintop star\, this unique event transforms a frozen lake into a battlefield of frozen dreams.

This year’s matchup will feature Liberty\, Chatfield\, and Chaparral High Schools. \n  \nWhere: On the Ice in Palmer Lake \nWhen: Saturday\, January 10th \nFaceoff: 6:00 PM \n  \nAlongside the high school faceoffs\, the weekend also features a Youth Hockey Camp where young players get to skate\, learn\, and grow their skills on the iconic outdoor rink as well as an adult tournament hosted by Ranger Hockey Club. \nWhether you’re a player\, parent\, or passionate fan\, the Palmer Lake Outdoor Classic is a one-of-a-kind experience that brings the entire community together—under the star\, on the ice\, and at the heart of winter in Colorado. \nMore information is available at https://palmerlakeoutdoorclassic.com/

SUMMARY:Winter Adult Reading Program Helps People Build Healthy Reading Habits in 2026
DESCRIPTION:Pikes Peak Library District’s (PPLD) annual Winter Adult Reading Program began on January 1.  This popular program encourages adults ages 18 and up to put down their phone and pick up a book to develop brain-healthy reading habits and participate in activities. Participants earn prizes by completing 30 days of reading and activities between Jan. 1 – Feb. 28. Last year\, 5\,775 people registered for the program\, a 13% increase from 2024. \nStudies show that adults and seniors who use leisure time for reading receive a range of benefits including reduced stress\, less cognitive decline\, improved critical thinking\, enhanced conversation skills\, better sleep\, higher empathy\, and stronger connections with others. With national reading rates decreasing in recent years\, the Winter Adult Reading Program supports mental and cognitive health in the Pikes Peak region by encouraging the community to pick up a book. \nIn celebration of the 150th anniversary of Colorado and 250th anniversary of the United States this year’s program is themed around Colorado and its history. The Library has planned a variety of engaging programs based on this theme. This year’s program also includes a special after-hours event\, Sorry\, I’m Booked: Winter Adult Reading Program Party. The event will include literary trivia\, a book swap\, an adult Storytime\, bookish crafts\, and book talks about titles coming out in 2026\, hosted at East Library on Sat.\, Feb. 7 starting at 6 p.m. \nParticipants will receive a 2026 calendar with historic photos of Colorado Springs libraries when they register (while supplies last).  After registering\, participants must complete 30 days of reading and activities (such as attending a Library program) to earn this year’s limited-edition program mug and a coupon for a free dessert from Crumbl®\, both while supplies last. They will also be entered into a Grand Prize Drawing for one of five $100 gift cards from The French Kitchen or a 50L hiking backpack from Mountain Chalet. Participants can earn additional entries for the grand prizes for every additional five days of reading and activities completed. \n  \nNow through February 28 \nAll PPLD locations \nMore info: ppld.org/winter-reading
