Get moving, Pueblo County! 🥾🚲🛶

To celebrate Colorado’s 150th birthday, the Pueblo 150 Challenge is inviting everyone who lives or works in Pueblo County to log at least 150 miles of outdoor activity between June 1 and August 1.

Walk, hike, run, bike, paddle, skate or turn your daily commute into part of the challenge. Choose one activity or combine several — the goal is to simply get outside, explore new places and encourage others along the way.

Participants who reach 150 miles of physical activity can enter a drawing for three $150 cash prizes and local gift certificates. Track your miles using any device or app, then submit your totals and stories by August 5.

Pueblo has a sound all its own — and This Highway follows one of the bands that helped define it.

This new documentary tells the story of The Martini Shot, a Pueblo, Colorado band whose music, energy, and hometown roots have carried far beyond the stage. Shot by Lepik Photography, the film captures the heart behind the music and the road that shaped it.

This Highway is streaming now on YouTube:

Watch it, share it, and celebrate a band that’s been part of Pueblo’s soundtrack.

🏈 The Legend of Dutch Clark: Pueblo’s Greatest Athlete 🏈

🌆 Pueblo has no shortage of stories — of resilience, of reinvention, of pride rooted in place. Dutch Clark fits squarely within that lineage.

💪 He represents something that still resonates today. Greatness can come from a steel town along the Arkansas River. It can come from a kid who learns early that nothing is handed to you. It comes from being tough, resilient, and community-focused.

💡 And maybe that’s why his story remains relevant.

🏟️ Long before professional sports became the billion-dollar spectacle it is today, before highlight reels and endorsement deals, Dutch Clark was redefining what it meant to be an athlete. He wasn’t just good, he was the complete package. Quarterback, kicker, runner, defender, coach, teacher. And he did it with roots firmly planted in Pueblo.

💬 “Pretty much every event I cover, and every story I do, is about being involved. My community is my camera. That’s how I connect with people.” - Tyler Shown, Jolly Mule Productions

🎥 Just wrapped a deep dive with Tyler on the patio of Brues Alehouse before the World Cup started. For Tyler, the camera has never been a tool. It’s a passport, a bridge, and a way of making sense of the world while helping shape it. Through Jolly Mule Productions, the Steel City Music Showcase, documentaries, campaign videos, and civic-minded creative work, Tyler has become one of Pueblo’s most active storytellers and connectors. His projects move easily between humor and legacy, music and memory, personal ambition and community pride.

✋ Stay tuned for the full interview - featured in Issue 5 - releasing in July!

🏺 The Legacy of Artus Van Briggle 🏺

🔎 Kenneth Talmadge Stacks and What It Takes to Keep History Alive

🏫 In Southern Colorado, history doesn’t just sit in museums. It lives on shelves, in studios, and in the quiet collections of people who care enough to preserve it. For Kenneth Talmadge Stacks, that preservation started with a single piece of pottery and grew into something much larger: a deep, ongoing effort to understand and document the legacy of Artus Van Briggle.

🕰️ As a collector, writer, and independent publisher through Kunsthaus Press, Stacks occupies a space where curiosity meets craftsmanship. His work on Van Briggle (a collaboration with longtime researcher Kathy Honea) does more than catalog an artist’s output. It reconstructs a story that has been scattered by time, fire, and flood, piecing together the life of a man whose influence extends far beyond the clay he shaped.

🛣️ The Long Road Forward 🛣️

🌄 Reshaping How Pueblo County Moves, One Trail at a Time

🪏 Change rarely arrives with a parade. Change often comes through persistence, patience, and the drive to show up and do the work when no one is paying attention. Few understand that better than Kim Arline.

🚴‍♀️ For nearly two decades, Arline has been at the center of a quiet but transformative effort to reshape how Pueblo County moves. As a volunteer leader with PACE (Pueblo Active Community Environments), she has pushed for a connected network of trails, bike lanes, and pedestrian pathways, work that began not with a grand vision, but with a simple goal: helping her own kids safely get to school.

🏛️ What followed were years of advocacy, public meetings, grant writing, and persistence in the face of skepticism. Over time, Arline has become a steady voice for something bigger: a community designed not just for cars, but for people.

🏗️ Today, as long-awaited trail connections finally take shape and more residents embrace walking and biking, that vision is becoming visible in ways it never was before. But the story of PACE isn’t just about infrastructure. It’s about culture, access, and the belief that small changes, sustained over time, can fundamentally reshape a place.

💬 “No matter religion, politics, heritage, or education, our concerts are a safe space for all to enjoy the most beautiful universal language in the world, music.” - John Falsetto

🎙️ Just wrapped an insightful interview with John, Executive Director of the Pueblo Municipal Band. Since 1913, the band has given the city something rare: a public tradition that still belongs to everyone. On summer Sunday evenings, generations of Pueblo families gather for music that feels both familiar and alive, from marches and patriotic standards to jazz, Latin selections, film themes, show tunes, and contemporary favorites. For John, this tradition isn’t abstract. He and his wife, Susan, joined the band as high school students more than four decades ago, and today the organization remains woven into their family’s life, as well as the cultural life of Pueblo.
