Tom Helm is a Loveland coffee roaster. On Friday his Brewsworthy Coffee is partnering with a local ceramicist for a night of coffee tasting and education about pottery making, coffee roasting, and various coffee brewing methods.
 Visit the Q&C Studios on West 2nd Street, taste some great coffee and learn about pottery making!
This event is free to the public, and while items will be available for sale, this event is intended for education and fun. Light hors d'oeuvres will be served.
Helm says this about his coffee, "We have NO stale roasted beans lying around. We roast your coffee, to your specifications, when you order it. If you want a light roast, an espresso roast, or any roast in between, we make sure you receive your coffee the way you want it!

John Giroux of Family Mortgage, the "idea" man behind the Loveland 365 project is also a founder of C.L.E.A.R. (Coalition of Loveland for Education, Awareness and Resources), which visits schools and teaches youth about the dangers of meth. Next Saturday 3/31/12, there will be a walk around Lake Loveland in memory of Mitch Gray.
Read full details here in an article in the Reporter Herald. If you think meth doesn't affect us here in Loveland ... think again!
Check out C.L.E.A.R. on Facebook! And mark your calendar to participate in the walk next weekend. You can sign up online here on the Mitch's March Against Meth website.

 Loveland 365 - the perfect gift!
Now that the book - Loveland 365 - has been in people's hands and homes, they are telling us how they must sit down, how they take their time going page by page. They tell us they are delighted to see places they love and people they know. We often hear, "I wish I'd ordered one. My mom (or brother or teacher) would love that for Christmas."
The books are still available through Alternatives to Violence and Habitat for Humanity. Don't delay! You will have a limited edition gift to give someone special ... and your purchase will benefit a local non-profit.

 Gunnar Smith The Muppets came out the day before Thanksgiving.
Did you see Loveland's own Gunnar Smith (he's on page 049 of "Loveland 365") in the movie? Gunnar plays Gary at age 6?
Pay attention - you will be seeing this rising star more often in the near future!

John Giroux recently met with Lynda Neilsen of Alternatives to Violence and Gwen Stephenson of Habitat for Humanity to give them the remaining Loveland 365 books. Both organizations are selling the books to directly profit their nonprofits.
An article written by Rebecca Powell in the Loveland Connection, titled "Loveland 365 now can benefit nonprofits after last books delivered."
The book hand-off took pace at Henry's downtown during a "Wednesdays 4 ATV" event sponsored by the Leadership Loveland Class of 2012.

Wednesday of this week, Oct. 19th, Loveland 365 will be teaming up with Leadership Loveland at Henry's during the "Wednesdays 4 ATV" happy hour. Each Wednesday one of 7 restaurants (Applebee's, Henry's, Island Grill, Monroe's at Best Western, The Pourhouse, Sports Station or the Widow McCoy) hosts the group, whose class project is to raise awareness and funds for the Southern Larimer County Safehouse project. Grimm Brothers donates great giveaways every week, and in addition to donating 10% of all Grimm Brothers beer sales, each restaurant donates a portion of the sales on selected food items to Alternatives to Violence.
This week Henry's will be donating 10% of all Grimm Bros sales AND 10% of all dessert sales ALL DAY to Alternatives to Violence.
Copies of Loveland 365 will be available - check with our team members there. Proceeds will go to either Habitat for Humanity or Alternatives to Violence, which were in the #1 and #2 slots as the non-profits most chosen when people purchased their copies of Loveland 365.
That's right! You can still get a copy of Loveland 365!
Habitat for Humanity is partnering with Alternatives to Violence to build the Southern Larimer County Safehouse. Habitat is SO GOOD at building, it just seems "right" don't you think?
See you at Henry's on Wednesday, 10/19/11, 5:00 - 7:00 pm.

 The current edition of the Northern Colorado Business Report ran a great story about Loveland 365. In it, Tracee Sioux wote about the issues the presale paradigm presents to the Loveland 365 team.
The community support the project has received is fabulous! We are certain, when people see the book and hold it in their hands, everyone will wish they'd ordered their copy before the deadline!
There is still time to place orders. Even more nonprofits have come on board, so finding and donating the proceeds from your book purchase to your favorite charity is easier than ever.
Thanks, Tracee Sioux and NCBR!
