Music And Farmer’s Markets Return
By Shari Phiel The Niwot Business Association has
announced this summer’s events, including the newest event, the Niwot Farmers
and Flea Market, which will be held on the second Saturdays of June, July and
August in front of the Niwot Market.
NBA promotions chair Robin Abb said the event will have a much different look than
previous farmers markets. “We want to create more of a flea market/community
garage sale type of event,” she said.
Rhythm on the Rails, the award-winning and highly popular summer concert series and farmer’s market, will be back on Thursday evenings from June 11 through Sept. 10. The event, at Niwot’s Whistle Stop Park, will open at 5 p.m. with numerous vendors, a happy hour beginning at 5:30 p.m. and music starting at 6:45 p.m. [Read full story...]

Give a wave and chances are that Eric Skokan, owner and chef of the Black Cat Restaurant in Boulder will return the favor. [Read full story...]
Bringing Culture To The Community
By Noelle Abarelli Niwot is packed with delightful shops,
galleries and award-winning restaurants. For such a small town, the variety of
cultural experiences within reach is remarkable. However, with the recent
establishment of a new cultural arts organization, there may soon be even more
to enjoy.
Liz Emmett-Mattox Passionate, committed and great to work
with are three of the ways those who worked with Amie Bervy describe her. These days, much of her passion, commitment and hard work are
invested in the Niwot Elementary School community where her daughter, Katie, is
in first grade and son, Max, is a third grader.
Graham Fowler Begins
New Career
By Liz Emmett-Mattox After 32 years with the Longmont Police
Department, Niwot resident Graham Fowler has another chance to answer the
question, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” For Fowler, the answer was
pretty easy: a Park Ranger.
Meeting Notes
The April NBA meeting held at Sew Fresh
Studio included plans for flowers to be displayed on Second Avenue this summer.
Streetscape and Design Committee chair Euvaldo Valdez
has been working with Diane Strong at Niwot Florist to create attractive,
sturdy and drought resistant flower pots along the town’s main road.
Farm-Fresh Fare Comes
to St. Vrain Cafeterias
By Barbara Hey Starting this summer, students in the St. Vrain Valley School District will have farm-fresh, locally
grown produce in their lunches.
By Mary Wolbach Lopert Ask any ‘tween girl what her three favorite words are, and you’re likely to hear “High School
Musical.” (After all, Hannah Montana is only two.)
From the snippets I’ve seen of these
movies, there are happy kids singing and dancing their way through the glory
years of high school, with all those loveable character types: the perky
cheerleader, the nerdy nerds, the cool captain of all the boy sports and of
course, the mean girls.

This bobcat was recently photographed in a backyard near Niwot Road and
Oriole Lane in Niwot. Homeowner Linda Roth said, “Hopefully it will help keep
the rabbit and squirrel poplations in check.”
