Milestone Medical, a division of Longmont United Hospital with offices at 6800 N. 79th Street in Cottonwood Square in Niwot, is continuing services for patients although Dr. Eric Hernandez and Dr. Jennifer Johnson are no longer with Longmont United Hospital. Though there is no family practitioner in place at this time, Longmont United Vice President of Operations Peter Powers said that people can still get most of the same services at the Niwot location. “Currently we have a nurse practitioner there that still sees patients as normal,” Pow...
There are two main places to shop and eat in Niwot, but if you’re not familiar with the town you might just miss one of them. Property owners Anne and Jim Postle have a solution to connect these areas, Cottonwood Square and Old Town, which is the Link Building on the corner of Niwot Road and 79th Street. On Wednesday, Feb. 17, the Boulder County Planning Commission held a public hearing to hear from the staff, property owners and the public about the proposal, and to make a recommendation to the county commissioners. Both Anne and Jim Postle w...
Gunbarrel Optometry is moving into more eye care while still providing the same services it has for the last 23 years. Under the new ownership of Philip Wren, the office has seen some new faces and other changes since April of last year. “It’s been going really well,” Wren said. “We’ve had good reception from the existing base and we’ve been working on gaining new patients. It’s been a good transition.” Office Manager Nikki Pattermann is one of the many new faces customers will see clearly once they get their new glasses or contact lenses....
The second annual Let’s Wine About Winter event, went off without a hitch last Saturday, Feb. 20. But if you attended last year’s event, you noticed one very stark difference—the weather. A blizzard accompanied last year’s inaugural event, which still has people talking about to this day. Many were hoping another blizzard would roll in just in time, but Mother Nature had other plans. It was a balmy day for winter, about 65 degrees, sunny and just a tad windy. One event goer said it was more like, “Let’s Wine About Wind,” than winter. But p...
The final two games for the Niwot High School girls basketball team were extremely important for their postseason hopes to come to fruition. They entered the week with a 13-8 record and a 5-7 record in the Northern conference. Unfortunately they dropped both games in their final week, one to Centaurus 57-34 and the final game to Northridge 43-36. After the loss to Centaurus, Niwot Head Coach Terri Ward knew that her team’s playoff aspirations had all but come to an end. “Bottom line, we had to win these last two games to have a shot,” Ward...
The last few weeks were not what the Niwot High School boys basketball team had hoped they would be. Entering the final stretch of the season it was a long shot for the Cougars to make the playoffs, but if they had been able to take care of business and let the chips fall as they would, they would have had a slim shot at seeing the post season. Niwot was not able to do that though, as they ended their season on a five-game losing streak. The most recent losses last week to Centaurus, 50-45, and Northridge, 66-63, were especially hard to...
It was a familiar sight for junior Tommy Stager of the Niwot High School wrestling team, being at the Colorado State Wrestling Tournament for the third time in his career. Unlike the last few times though, Stager had some company to share the experience with. Sophomore Alex Gazdik also qualified for the tournament for the first time in his short wrestling career. They both fought hard in the three days of events at the Pepsi Center, but ultimately it was Stager who finished in the top three. Cougar Head Coach Bobby Matthews said this was a...
Warm February weather brought out book-lover Beverly Clark. Clark said she enjoys picking books for her grandson from Niwot’s Little Free Library at the corner of 79th Street and Niwot Road. “I love using these [libraries], because you can leave a book and take a book,” Clark said. “I make sure I always bring a book… because if everyone always took a book, the library would be empty. I use these all the time. They are great.” Clark’s reading selection for her grandson included “Real Stories of the Ghosts of the White House” and — she said wi...
