Courier celebrates 25 years

Two-legged and four-legged friends dropped by the Courier's 25th anniversary party to have a bite and raise a glass to the community newspaper.

The snack tray was replenished by three of the guests of honor at the Courier's 25th anniversary party. Mary Lopert and Karen Copperberg are retiring as founding owners of the paper and Jocelyn Rowley is leaving after serving as editor and writing more than a thousand articles since 2016.

Former Courier Advertising Director Allison Forke came down from Cody, Wyoming to celebrate the Courier's 25th anniversary and visit with old friends, including Bert Steele, owner of Niwot Market.

Courier Editor Jocelyn Rowley celebrates the paper's anniversary with Niwot High golf coach, Ed Weaver. Rowley is leaving the Courier after covering news and sports for six years. "She is an extension of our team, our teams," said Weaver. "All the kids knew her. She's really good. I told her we're going to miss her."
