SUMMARY:65 Years of Broomfield
DESCRIPTION:Join us on June 16 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at The Crescent Grange to celebrate 65 years of the City of Broomfield with a special program honoring the legacy of Broomfield’s first and longest standing City Manager George Di Ciero presented by his son\, Mark Di Ciero. Mark graduated from Broomfield High School in 1989 and the University of Colorado at Boulder in 1993. Mark moved from Broomfield to Las Vegas\, Nevada\, in 1997\, where he hosted a morning radio show for nearly twenty years before moving into family law at The Abrams & Mayo Law Firm in Las Vegas as an advanced certified paralegal. Mark comes “home” for this special program highlighting his father’s four decades leading Broomfield and the significant events and important people\, places\, and spirit that shaped our community during that time. \nBroomfield became a City in June of 1961. Just a few short years prior\, fewer than 200 people lived in Broomfield. Discover the fascinating history of the development and growth of Broomfield Heights—a suburb “as perfect as men can conceive”–leading up to the incorporation of the City.  Presented by Tina Eichner\, Editor of Our Broomfield\, and David Allison\, History and Museum Coordinator\, this session will showcase the people\, places\, and spirit of the advent of Broomfield as a suburb.
