Hello, Peetz America
In 2026, the United States will mark the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence - the nation’s semiquincentennial. At the same time, Colorado will mark the 150th anniversary of its entrance into the Union–the state’s sesquicentennial. These combined anniversaries–our “Sesquisemiquincentennial”–provide an opportunity for us to come together with fellow Coloradans and Americans around our shared ideals.
​
The Town of Peetz has joined the Logan County 150/250 Planning Committee and is excited to see all the ideas for celebration events that are taking shape. The celebration will begin July 1, 2025, and run through December 31, 2026. Since the completion date for our new school will be sometime in 2026, what a wonderful opportunity to get involved in the celebration for our school, our organizations, and our Town!
Let's all get involved in the celebration!
July 1, 2025, will be here before we know it! In 1976, the Town of Peetz went all out for the Colorado Centennial celebration. Let's see if we can outdue ourselves in 2026! If you have ideas for displays, contests, events, art/crafts, etc., please share them with me at the Town Hall. I will publish them on this page and on the Happenings in Peetz Facebook page. Logan County is developing a Sesquisemiquincentennial Passport, where passport holders can receive passport stamps for events, displays, etc. all around the County. Let's make Peetz one of the preferred passport destinations!
One of the main events can be our 2026 For Peetz Sake/Homecoming celebration. Let's make it one of the Best ever parades and events. Get your thinking caps on! See my contact information below.

I'm looking forward to seeing lots of good ideas!
Let's connect.
