π Help Shape the Future of Our Creeks

If you love a walk along the trail by Monument or Fountain Creek, here's your chance to help shape what comes next. The City, Colorado Springs Utilities and Pikes Peak Waterways are working on the COS Creek Plan, a long-term effort to restore our creeks from the Austin Bluffs Pkwy bridge on Monument Creek down to the S. Academy Blvd bridge.
The goals are ones we can all get behind: less flooding, cleaner water, and better trails and parks. The plan is in a feasibility study now, and they want to hear from neighbors. Join a neighborhood meeting Mon, Oct 26, 5-6:30pm at Colorado College's Gaylord Hall (Worner Center, 902 N. Cascade Ave), or share your thoughts anytime at the online open house.
π Bargain Box: This Week's Hot Deals!
New treasures are on the floor this week and 50% off + $1 items in select categories (including Halloween!) through Sat, Oct 24! Watch now to see what's new!

Cozy comfort food, the easy way! This Slow Cooker Salisbury Steak lets tender beef patties simmer low and slow in a rich, savory gravy while you go about your day. Serve it over mashed potatoes or egg noodles for a warm fall dinner that practically makes itself, and a house that smells amazing when you walk in the door.
