The City of Greeley is proud to highlight the collaborative efforts of local organizations working to connect our community with nature through storytelling and exploration. The new children's book, “My Great Adventure with Nana”, beautifully illustrated by Armando Silva, brings the magic of adventuring in the outdoors to life through a child's eyes. This project was made possible thanks to support from Trust for Public Land, Great Outdoors Colorado (GOCO), and our local partners at the High Plains Library District and Weld Community Foundation . Together, we’re committed to making nature more accessible and engaging for all by promoting outdoor experiences at Greeley’s natural areas. This book, available at various libraries in the region, is just one of the ways we’re encouraging families to explore the outdoors and appreciate the rich wildlife and landscapes Greeley has to offer. We are also hosting A Day of Adventure event at Greeley's newest natural area on October 5, featuring a live reading of "My Great Adventure with Nana," which was inspired by this natural area, along with a nature scavenger hunt and guided trail walks, encouraging families to experience the beauty of our local landscapes firsthand. By fostering these partnerships, we’re helping to preserve our natural spaces while inspiring the next generation to embrace the beauty and adventure that can be found right here in our community. #Greeley #GreeleyColorado #ColoradoOutdoors #GreeleyPartnerships #CommunityCollaboration #OutdoorExploration #PublicSpaces

The City of Greeley recently announced the retirement of Deputy City Manager Donald Tripp, capping an incredible 46-year career in public service. Spanning six decades, Don has brought future-focused leadership to communities across the country, including in Ames and Des Moines, Iowa; Battle Creek, Michigan; and in Westminster, Colorado; prior to Greeley. Since joining Greeley, Don’s impact has been nothing short of transformative. Some of his key contributions include: ● Leading strategic planning initiatives focused on Greeley’s growth for the next 50 years ● Overseeing urban development and infrastructure improvements that enhance mobility and public transportation ● Attracting GRIT Hockey to Greeley and championing the UNC School of Osteopathic Medicine Although Don’s retirement officially began at the end of August, we are fortunate to have him continue supporting Greeley part-time, lending his expertise to critical city initiatives. City Manager Raymond Lee expressed it best: “Don, your dedication and service as Deputy City Manager has been exemplary...Greeley has greatly benefited from your expertise, and your contributions during this renaissance period have positioned us as a local government leader and innovator in Colorado. Thank you, Don, for everything you have done and will continue to do for Greeley..

A few weeks ago, while working to ensure safety along the Poudre River Trail, the City of Greeley's Natural Areas and Trails team made an unexpected discovery—a beehive in a hazard tree. Understanding the importance of protecting pollinators, our staff quickly reached out to the Colorado Beekeepers Association for assistance. A local beekeeper responded and safely relocated the bees, ensuring their survival through the winter. The timing was fortunate; it turned out the bees didn’t have enough honey stores to last the season. Thanks to this quick action, the bees will now have a safe place to thrive, receiving extra care, including sugar water through the colder months. This serves as a reminder of the critical role pollinators play in our ecosystems. You can make a difference by planting wildflowers that bloom throughout the season, providing bees and other pollinators with the resources they need.
