NEWS RELEASE

Luvin Arms’ First-Ever Compassion Carnival is Coming to Town!

For Immediate Release: June 6, 2022

Erie, Colorado - Luvin Arms Animal Sanctuary is holding its first ever compassion-based carnival on July 9th, an alternative to the rodeo.

The rodeo has been a summer-time American institution for decades. Many of us have our own childhood memories of the rodeo. And yet, today there are many other forms of family-friendly entertainment that don’t involve harming baby calves to the point of serious injury and even death. Calf roping, featured prominently at all rodeos, is plain abuse. These baby calves just want to snuggle with their mothers - and instead they are chased, roped, hog-tied and dragged through the dirt. This old practice is cruel - we know better now.

Children are attracted to the rodeo because they have a natural affinity towards animals. Children crave connection to animals, and desire the opportunity to be close to farmed animals. Yet, the rodeo teaches children how to use animals for profit, and corrodes their natural empathy towards animals. 

Luvin Arms is providing the answer to creating fun family memories centered around the true joy of connecting with animals, without becoming desensitized to the needs and feelings of other beings. 

The Luvin Arms Compassion Carnival will include fun rides and games, and food trucks offering delicious cruelty-free refreshments. Participants will have the unique opportunity to meet and cuddle with Luvin Arms’ four young cow-girls who are all survivors of the abuses of the dairy industry. 

“Entertainment is a huge part of all of our lives. Let us engage in activities that are kind to all beings, and do not cause suffering for the sake of our entertainment,” said Emma Schwarz, the Sanctuary’s Director of Advancement in Ahimsa. “All beings want to be safe, play, and have fun. At the Luvin Arms Carnival, we can have fun and play with ALL species!”

The Luvin Arms Compassion Carnival will be a critical and powerful tool in accomplishing the Sanctuary’s mission of connecting communities to farmed animals, fostering the growth of everlasting compassionate hearts, and encouraging people of all ages to make choices rooted in Ahimsa - nonviolence toward all living beings.

Fort Collins, CO. (May 26, 2022) – COUNTRY Financialis pleased to announce Loveland Firefighters as a recipient of a COUNTRY Financial Operation Helping Heroes award.  COUNTRY Financial representative Sheron Rowland recently recognized the department with the award and presented a $750 donation.

 

The donation will go to a fund at Loveland Firefighters Local 3566, designated for providing assistance to the firefighters ofLoveland Fire Rescue Authority. Loveland Firefighters Local 3566 promises to continue assistance to its firefighters during times of distress, injury, and times of financial need.  

31040795468?profile=original Craig Willard, (far left) and team members accept the donation from Rowland (far right).

“Loveland Firefighters Local 3566 is extremely grateful for the donation from COUNTRY Financial to our firefighter assistance fund,” said Craig Willard, president Local 3566, Loveland Fire Rescue Authority.  “The generosity will help us contribute to members experiencing hardships from significant medical expenses and treatments, as well as recover from local disasters and other unforeseen emergencies.  Donations like these are especially beneficial, with firefighters being up to two times more likely to contract certain types of cancers from exposure to smoke and toxic chemicals commonly experienced in day-to-day operations and a generally higher risk of injury throughout all our missions.”

A program from COUNTRY Financial called Operation Helping Heroes helped Rowland make this happen. Through the program, COUNTRY Financial representatives can identify heroes in their communities and do something personal to give back.

 

“I’m a former firefighter are remember the days when we stood on the back of the engine and held on the rail for dear life while roaring down the road with sirens and lights flashing,” said Rowland. “It was an amazing time of my life and I know what it is like to be the person running towards something that everyone else is running from. These men and women are so committed to what they do and are true everyday heroes. I’m honored to contribute in some way and recognize them with this Operation Helping Heroes award.”

 

COUNTRY Financial has donated more than $4 million since 2020 to organizations and programs that support teachers, first responders, active-duty service members and veterans, supporting the company’s vision to “enrich lives in the communities we serve.” The Operation Helping Heroes program was created in 2015 to support non-profit events and programs that benefit active-duty service members, veterans and their families. Later, the program expanded to include first responders and teachers.

Unfortunately the answer is Yes. This comes as a big surprise to poeple but they usually don't find out that this is true until they get a DUI for sleeping in their car.

The law states that if you're in control of the vehicle you can be convicted of a DUI regardless of if you are driving or not. This means that the idea of sleeping it off in a car may land you in jail facing DUI charges.

Hello! I wrote this about our assistant golf professional at our country club who hit three hole-in-ones within a month. It's so incredibly unusual to make that many hole-in-ones ever, let alone in one month. All were witnessed and photographed (attached) and I can provide more details if you want to pick up the story. Would be nice for him.

On March 14, 2022 Andrew Drea made a hole-in-one on the Boulder Country Club Championship course. He remembers the date because it was his dog’s birthday. He hit a 192 yard shot with his 6 iron on hole number 11. It was complemented by a birdie on hole 11 and a birdie on hole 12. 


No later than fourteen days later on the Fowler course at Boulder Country Club, Andrew hit a second hole-in-one on March 28, 2022. This time with his pitching wedge on hole number 6 for 138 yards.


Then, nearly one month after his initial hole-in-one and only 21 days after his second hole-in-one, Andrew made his third hole-in-one on Thorncreek golf course. It was his first time playing the course. On lucky hole number 7, Andrew tee’d off with his 8 iron, 168 yards back. Originally he had his 9 iron in his hand but due to a gust of wind at the last second he swapped it out for his 8 iron. Had he stayed with the 9 iron, his shot would have been short of the hole.


Andrew knew after he hit his second hole-in-one that month that he would hole a third. “Good things come in threes,” he said.


Andrew Drea is an Assistant Golf Professional at Boulder Country Club (BCC). He’s been on staff with BCC since 2019 and graduated from Penn State University with a BS in Recreation, Park & Tourism with an emphasis in Professional Golf Management.


Andrew’s email is adrea@bouldercc.org for further questions or details.

NEWS RELEASE                                                                                                      April 18, 2022

CONTACTS:        Valerie Lunka (720-379-4630)
                             Debbie Jones (303-868-1804)

DENVER – Among the many organizations providing assistance to families impacted by the Marshall and Middle Fork Fires last December, Clothes To Kids of Denver may be one of the best kept secrets. Now the nonprofit is taking steps to increase awareness of its services among those who need it most and to make those services even more accessible to the fire’s survivors.

Since its founding in 2008, Clothes To Kids has provided more than 82,000 school wardrobes to students from low-income or in-crisis families, free of charge. While the nonprofit originally served only Denver County residents, it has since expanded to cover 28 school districts throughout the entire 11-county Denver metro area, including Boulder County. Students must be ages 3 – 21 and enrolled in preschool – 12th grade, or working toward a GED.

“All students whose families suffered losses in the Boulder County fires are eligible to receive free school wardrobes from Clothes To Kids,” says the organization’s executive director Valerie Lunka, “and no referral or proof of eligibility is currently required. We hope that schools, faith communities and all those providing assistance to fire victims will help spread the word about the valuable resource we offer kids in their communities.”

Central to the Clothes To Kids mission is its clothing boutique, located in Denver’s University Hills neighborhood at 2890 South Colorado Boulevard. Here, families find a pleasant and dignified shopping experience, complete with assistance from volunteer “personal shoppers” who help the students select from new and quality used clothing. Each student may choose five outfits, a coat or jacket, a pair of shoes, a bra (optional) and five pairs each of new underwear and socks. Extra items, such as pajamas, belts, hats, jewelry, winter accessories, school supplies, books and toys, may also be available. Students may receive one free wardrobe every four months.

“A lack of appropriate and fashionable clothing can make it difficult for kids to fit in with their peers and feel comfortable at school,” Lunka explains. “We make sure the students we serve have the clothing they need to feel confident and prepared to thrive.”

While most families are asked to call the Clothes To Kids boutique in advance to make shopping appointments, the nonprofit is providing drop-in service for families impacted by the fires in Boulder County. These families may shop for student wardrobes without appointments on Tuesdays through Saturdays, between 9:00 am and 4:00 pm, through the end of May. For additional information, visit https://clothestokidsdenver.org/ or call 720-379-4630.

A reckless driving ticket is issued when it is alleged that you drove a motor vehicle with a wanton or willful disregard for the safety of persons and/or property. This charge can be given to those within a motor vehicle, a bicycle, an electrically assisted bicycle, or a low powered scooter. Even if the conduct that resulted in a reckless driving ticket did not involve injury or death, this charge is still a serious offense in Colorado.

NEWS RELEASE

Luvin Arms Animal Sanctuary Offers Nationally Recognized Educational Outreach That Inspires A More Compassionate World

For Immediate Release: April 12, 2022

Erie, CO – In light of the devastating Avian Flu H5N1 that has resulted in the extermination of 25 million birds and counting, Luvin Arms’ Chef Donna Marino will hold a special public cooking class on Saturday, April 30th. The class will feature chicken and egg alternatives with delicious vegan wine pairings. Samples of many of the plant-based options on the market will be available for in-person tastings. Enjoy a beautiful spring evening connecting with animal residents and learning plant-based cooking at Luvin Arms Animal Sanctuary!

Since its founding in 2015, Luvin Arms has provided world-class humane education programming that benefits people, animals, and the environment.

Luvin Arms’ humane education program accomplishes their mission of Ahimsa - nonviolence toward all living beings by connecting communities to farmed animals, fostering the growth of everlasting compassionate hearts, and encouraging people of all ages to make choices rooted in empathy and sustainability.

Current Sanctuary humane education opportunities include films, public tours, speaker talks, school field trips, and plant-based cooking demonstrations.

“Avian Flus are a threat to our food system. The way our society breeds and confines birds has the potential to develop and spread virulent disease. It’s so important to learn alternatives to chicken and egg consumption so that we don’t perpetuate this deadly system.” – Emma Schwarz, Director of Advancement in Ahimsa, Luvin Arms Animal Sanctuary.

Emilio De Simone, a DUI Defense Attorney in Denver discusses why we request a DMV hearing.

We almost always request a DMV hearing and we primarily do it for two reasons:

1. If there is no hearing, you lose your license no questions asked. We believe that you shouldn't lose your license without a fight.

2. We generally request that the officer be present because it gives us an opportunity to question the officer and get a feel for what he will be like if and when we go to trial. And of course if he doesn't show up its an easy win.

Saving Jesters Dinner Theater

Hello,

It had been recently announced that The Jesters Dinner Theater in Longmont is planning to close its doors at the end of May. This has been a staple to the community, a family for so many, and a place to call "home" for 23 years.  Jesters is a place where children and adults perform musicals, including special children and teen productions.  We do not want to see it shut down. The price to buy the theater is $2 million, I have put together a fundraiser to buy the theater and be able to keep bringing entertainment to the community and theater education to the children. I would love any support in spreading the word to #SaveTheJesters

 

Thank you,

Amber Sutherland

Luvin Arms Hosts Refugees for a Day of Service and Refuge

March 10, 2022 – Luvin Arms Animal Sanctuary is collaborating with the International Rescue Committee (IRC) this month for a day of contemplative service work in honor of both female refugees and the animal residents of Luvin Arms. 

The IRC is one of three resettlement agencies in the Denver area for refugees, asylum seekers, and special immigrant visa holders. Their women’s support group, We Can Do It!, is an adjustment and acculturation program that uses different tools and mediums for stress relief, trauma processing, and community building. Women from different nationalities and backgrounds come together every week to support each other, practice English, and explore new skills. Despite language barriers and hardship, this model has proven to be a successful instrument for bringing people together, providing a safe space for expression, and fostering wellbeing and creative empowerment. 

During this program year, the IRC community is using outdoors activities as a medium for holistic wellness while exploring the beautiful Colorado landscape, and benefiting from the wonderful peace obtained through connection to nature. They offer various activities such as biking, hiking, nature art creation, group activities, volleyball, slacklines walking, and others. In addition, calmer connecting activities are also offered in nature: sitting meditation, walking meditation, breathing exercises, connection with animals, and relaxation.

Luvin Arms Animal Sanctuary will be providing the female refugees with ample opportunities to connect with the animal residents of Luvin Arms in March. Cuddling with animals can alleviate stress, provide a sense of peace during difficult times, and transcend any language barrier. The day will be mutually beneficial for both the female refugees and the Luvin Arms’ residents, underscoring the Sanctuary’s mission of Ahimsa - nonviolence towards all living beings - something both of these groups desire and deserve. 

Luvin Arms is a nonprofit animal sanctuary for abused and neglected farmed animals, based in Erie, Colorado. Luvin Arms is working to provide exceptional lifelong social, emotional, and cognitive care for their animal residents, and to advocate for those who have not been rescued by sharing their residents’ stories to inspire, educate, and empower others to embrace a more compassionate and sustainable lifestyle.

The IRC helps people affected by humanitarian crises - including the climate crisis - to survive, recover, and rebuild their lives. Founded at the call of Albert Einstein in 1933, the IRC is now at work in over 40 crisis-affected countries, as well as communities throughout Europe and the Americas. The IRC delivers lasting impact by providing health care, helping children learn, and empowering individuals and communities to become self-reliant, always seeking to address the inequalities facing women and girls.

31040793086?profile=original31040793489?profile=originalGood afternoon!

We are The Korean BBQ Chef (KBC): a personal chef business that recently launched. Originally located in Boulder, we offer the convenience of meal preparation at our clients' homes in Colorado, specializing in Korean cuisines.
Our chef founded this business after being guided by his motivation and desire to help his father throughout his unfortunate journey with colon cancer. When it comes to issues relevant to the intestines and stomach, the food we intake has an essential impact on the body. Following deep contemplation, it was determined by the entire family that home-made food was the best option for his father.
Health is chiefly the main goal with KBC. We want to take the food industry to not only a higher level, but ideally a healthier level as well.
Please kindly review our website below!
Feel free to let us know if there are any questions. Interested or know someone who might be interested in treating themselves to some Korean cuisine at the comfort of home? Contact us!
