"Fading Past in hand, Douglas Countians today
and tomorrow are well armed to preserve and even reconstruct a fascinating
heritage of Indians and cowboys, of stage drivers and railroaders, of
quarries and lumbermen, of one-room school teachers and women ranchers, of
saloonkeepers and general store tenders. Such a past should not keep fading
away, but be there to comfort the old-timers and to greet thousands of new
families rushing to Colorado's fast-growing twenty-first century frontier."
—Thomas J. Noel
