The Utility Week BBQ scheduled for Thursday has been moved from City Park back to the City Complex at 710 Railroad.  The fall weather moving in looks too cold and wet to be having hamburgers in the park.  Come and have a hamburger from 11a-2p.  Then at 2pm head downtown for the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony!

There are lots of activities happening this week in Fort Morgan.

On Thursday, the Utility Week BBQ will be held at City Park from 11a – 3p and the Downtown Ribbon Cutting will begin at 2pm.  That evening, the Fort Morgan Museum opens a new exhibit:  Virginia Roediger Johnson: Ceremonial Costumes of the Pueblo Indians.   Click here for details.

Friday is Fort Morgan Homecoming!  The parade begins downtown at 5:10pm with a Chili Supper out at Legion Field before the football game.  Details are here!

We received many, many entries detailing the great customer service our listeners have received in lots of businesses all across Morgan County.  But there could only be one winner – Congratulations to Business Mart in downtown Fort Morgan!!

Business Mart is the winner of a 1 hour remote during B106′s Greatest Hits Lunch Hour and the winning nomination came from Judy Florian, winner of $106.30!

All the excitement can be found here!
