On April 22, several restaurants in Niwot participated in “Unplugged,” an event created by the Center For Screen Time Awareness. On this evening, diners at Niwot restaurants were treated to musicians from several area schools playing acoustic instruments. Restaurant owners were pleased with the increased business on a weeknight, and students and their families contributed to a lively street scene that evening. Pictured here are Alex Abelkis (cello) and Emma Schaefer (violin) performing outside Lefty’s Pizzaria.

If you’ve eaten at the Garden Gate restaurant even once or twice, chances are you’ve seen Arlene Clayton. She might have been showing diners to their tables, or moving around the room checking to make sure everything’s okay.
If you eaten there for years, as many local residents have, chances are good that Clayton knows you by name, and will be on her way to your table with your regular drink before you’ve even opened your menu.
A native Coloradan, Clayton grew up in Greeley where she took her first restaurant job 42 years ago. “Back then, I was raising my kids by myself and the tip money was pretty good. When you have kids, you always need money for this and that, and waiting tables, I had a little bit of cash all the time.” <Read Full Story ...>
