December 24, 2012 — Leave a comment

Happy Holidays to all the HeidiTown citizens, from Heidi & Ryan

It’s time for another segment on KRFC 88.9 FM.

Please note that there will not be a radio segment next week due to the Mayor’s crazy holiday schedule.

The evolution of the HeidiTown brand over the past year has been amazing, and lots of exciting things are in store for the upcoming year. On this week’s radio show I share with the listeners some of the changes happening around HeidiTown in 2013.

Also, I highlight some of the New Year’s Eve celebrations taking place in Fort Collins and Denver.

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and may 2013 by the Best Year yet for all of us!!!

HeidiTown on the radio – How to relax in Colorado this holiday season

November 26, 2012 — Leave a comment

Some people love the holidays, but there are many of us who find the season a bit stressful. Family obligations, travel and high expectations can make an otherwise merry time of year downright excruciating.

There’s no way to avoid the holidays, but you can find ways to make them a little less hectic. In this week’s segment on KRFC 88.9 FM, I outline some activities that will slow you down and hopefully, relax you a little during the Colorado holiday season.

My segments on KRFC air on Wednesday evenings just before 6 p.m. and on Friday evenings at 5 p.m., but you can listen to this week’s segment HERE.

This Thursday is Thanksgiving, so of course, on this week’s radio segment on KRFC 88.9 FM, I’m sharing with listeners the things I’m most thankful for, and of course, I’ve added a Colorado twist.

I’m also sharing with my radio listeners some of the exciting changes that are happening around HeidiTown, and that includes more emphasis on Colorado travel.

HeidiTown on the Radio – Getting ready for a Colorado Christmas

It’s hard to believe, but the holidays are almost upon us, and while you may have been ignoring this fact, many have not. Last December’s post entitled “Top 5 Colorado Christmas Towns” has been trending here for nearly two months already. Apparently, many people are planning a Colorado Christmas this year.

I hope that this week’s segment on KRFC 88.9 FM will help you get in the spirit. I’ve found some delightful activities including tree lighting events and holiday theater sure to get you in the proper mood for mulled wine, gingerbread cookies and roasted chestnuts.

So snuggle up with a mug of hot chocolate (I prefer it with a shot of peppermint schnapps) and listen to this week’s radio segment HERE.

This post is a day late because on the first Monday of the month I always reveal the recipient of the HeidiTown Gives Back Campaign.

This week’s segment on KRFC 88.9 FM is dedicated entirely to all the veterans who have served our country with honor.

This week’s radio show includes the different ways you can honor our Colorado veterans this weekend from Denver to Fort Collins.

HeidiTown on the Radio – Let’s get artsy, Colorado

As the days get shorter and colder, I start to think about theater and museums. I realize these topics come up a lot on HeidiTown, but that’s because Colorado has no shortage of artistic and cultural events to write about, plus museums and live theater are the Mayor’s favorites.

On this week’s radio show on KRFC 88.9 FM, I share some upcoming art-related events happening along the Front Range in November.

I don’t believe in ghosts, but I have seen them.

It’s almost Halloween, and this compelled me to tell some of my own ghost stories in this week’s segment on KRFC 88.9 FM.

Find out when and where my ghostly encounters took place, and maybe you can travel to these haunted Colorado locations to seek our your own paranormal experience.
