It is a sad day on Glade Park due to the passing of Dori Van Loan. Almost 30 years ago she married Jay, and dedicated herself to adapting to both the hardships and pleasures of ranch life. She took an interest in every aspect of it, and was a true partner with Jay in improving the ranch, the cattle herd, and ranching in general. We send our condolences to Jay and their daughter Traci, and a whole community where she made a huge contribution and will be missed greatly.

Colorado National Monument Superintendant Joan Anzelmo has taken considerable heat from some big players on her decision to not allow the Quizno's commercial bike race in the Monument - and the Park Service is backing her up. Along with impacts on the Monument, she also considered the impact on Glade Park residents: "Allowing commercial events of this nature “are not at the heart of what the national parks are about,” she said. Race proponents disagree, and point to the Coors Classic bike races that took place in Colorado National Monument during the 1980s as precedent for allowing the Quiznos bike race. Times and circumstances have changed since then however, Anzelmo said. The east side of Rim Rock Drive is now a right-a-way for Glade Park residents. And in 1994, the road was placed on the National Registry of Historic Places. The park's wildlife, birds, and other natural and cultural resources including recent paleontology discoveries could all be negatively impacted by the aircraft and large numbers of spectators the event would draw, Anzelmo said. “Our primary mission, given by Congress, is to protect park resources and serve the visiting public,” she said."
