      Colorado Boulevard Third AnniversaryDear Readers,

      Today, Tuesday June 28, 2016, we turn three years old.

      I would like to use this occasion to thank everyone who has given their time, energy, and support to advance our community via this publication.

      As Colorado Boulevard Network (ColoradoBoulevard.net,) keeps breaking major stories where regional and national news outlets pick up and build upon, our fine writers enable us to be a major ethical, social and environmental voice locally, regionally and nationally, and to them we say, Thank You!

      New responsibilities are bestowed upon us, with natural organic growth (55,000 readership and growing,) as well as creative and technical expansion.

      As we energized the local scene in the last two years, we promise to do a better job in the coming years, focusing on quality vs. quantity, in order to inform, educate, and better our lives, one community at a time.
