MUSUEM SPOTLIGHT Welcome to CSPM, Steve Winters Maintenance Technician II As a native of Colorado Springs, Steve has a long history in the region. His grandparents were original “health-seekers” and came to Colorado due to his Grandmother’s asthma in 1931. Steve has an extensive background in building construction, floor covering, and building maintenance. He worked 10 years with the Colorado Springs Utilities Wastewater Division as an Industrial Waste Technician, and later as Industrial Waste Field Operations Supervisor. Steve also had 21 years with the Colorado Springs Fire Department from which he recently retired. Steve went to Wasson High School and graduated from Pikes Peak Community College with an Associate Degree in Fire Science. He enjoys building and restoring classic cars in his spare time as well as visiting wineries in different states with his wife on their motorcycle. Thank you Carol Denning Matt Mayberry presenting framed print to Carol Denning After twenty-one years of overseeing the CSPM’s Museum Store, Carol Denning is retiring to spend more time with her family—especially with her new grandchild. After retiring as a nurse for Penrose Hospital, she came to the Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum to manage the Museum store in 1998. She was instrumental in featuring local artists, and helping visitors take a little bit of Colorado Springs and the Pikes Peak region back home with them. Through her leadership and commitment, the museum store has provided a critical visitor amenity while contributing financial support for museum operations.“Carol was a wonderful boss and an even greater friend. She will be sorely missed by her volunteers,” said Barbara Knox, Museum Store Volunteer. From all of us at CSPM, we cannot thank Carol enough for her dedication to the Museum and wish her all the best! MUSELETTER OCTOBER 2019| PG 9
