There's currently a bit of a land rush on now, as people reserve their place in line for appliance rebates as part of the latest 'cash for clunkers' economic stimulus program.  Not surprisingly, though, Colorado's website is ill-equipped to handle the volume and is having problems.  They've created a new splash page at rebate.rechargecolorado.com that directs people to rebate.rechargecolorado.com/Appliance.aspx, but that new address doesn't work - just sends you back to the splash page.  This is because they made a typo, the correct address should have a LOWERCASE 'a' in Appliance.  Follow this link.

UPDATE - looks like it's been fixed. No problem, I secured my refrigerator rebate, time to ditch that old, inefficient hulk!

In the April 6th election, voters rejected the proposed sales tax hike that would fund a new recreation center in town.  Steve Randolph was reelected mayor, and Eric Smith, David Turley, and Terry Harrison won seats on the city council.  More in the Gazette.

Last year's Easter Egg hunt at Memorial Park proved to be a bit large for that venue, so this year it'll be at the high school instead, Saturday, April 3rd.  Doors open at 9:00 (not sure if this will be indoors or out, though).  The hunt for kids ages 1-4 will start at 10, ages 4-8 at 11, 8 and up after that.
