It also lists library and theater events, workshops on abstract art and felting, and a Valentine's Day bake sale and father-daughter dance.

This document contains a newspaper article that summarizes changes to Trinidad State Junior College's athletic department, including cutting the men's golf program. The changes were triggered by the departure of the volleyball coach. The college will search for a new athletic director and volleyball coach. While the golf team has been very successful, the current athletic director was wearing three hats, so cutting golf will allow him to focus on his other roles. Coaches and boosters were disappointed but understood the need for reorganization.

PROVIDING DIRECTIONS
Workers will soon
install City’s new
Wayfinding Signage
By Steve Block
The Chronicle-News
Newsignagewillsoonsproutup
all over Trinidad as part of Phase
One of the City’s new Wayfinding
Signage Plan. Approximately 20
of the new signs were displayed
Wednesday on Elm Street out-
side of Creative Designs, the com-
pany that designed and produced
the signs, under the direction of
graphic designer and Creative
Designs owner Naomi Breedlove.
Breedlove learned graphic design
at Trinidad State Junior College
from instructor David Barrack,
and then earned her bachelor’s
degree from a college in Florida.
Breedlove
said her
b u s i n e s s
had to in-
vest in a new
paint booth
to complete
the work on
the project.
T a m m y
C a r r o l l ,
C r e a t i v e
D e s i g n s ’
office man-
ager, said
the busi-
ness’ three-
person team
p r o d u c e d
all of the
signs onsite.
The signs
are made of
aluminum
sign back-
ing with a metallic-paint overcoat,
a clear coat and a reflective vinyl
covering for the letters, to make
them more visible at night.
The 10 larger signs are called di-
rectional signs and are considered
the core of wayfinding signage.
They help to get vehicles and pe-
destrianstokeydestinationsinthe
City. Directional signs are divided
into three types. Primary vehicu-
lar directional signs direct motor-
ists to major areas of the City, such
as a sign saying, “Historic Down-
town Trinidad” and featuring
an arrow. Secondary directional
signs are designed to attract ve-
hicular, bicycle and/or pedestrian
traffic with signs featuring multi-
ple attractions, such as a sign say-
ing, “Welcome Center/Riverwalk/
City Hall Next Left.” Tertiary
signs are designed to direct visi-
tors to a single destination, such
as a sign saying, “Municipal Golf
Course,” with an arrow. Eight of
the signs have curved tops and are
76 inches high by 53 inches wide.
Two others have cut out images of
Fisher’s Peak at their tops and are
78 inches high by 48 inches wide.
The 14 smaller signs are 40.5
inches wide by 28 inches high
and are referred to as destination
signs, such as, “Trinidad Trolley
All Aboard” and “Parking Lot,” or
they display a historic marker on
a building. They can also include
certain other destinations such as
“Soccer Complex,” “County Fair-
grounds” or “Kit Carson Park.”
Approximately $33,500 in City
funding paid for Phase One of the
project, with the entire project be-
ing approved by the City Council
in June 2011. The City Tourism
Board, the City Planning, Zoning
and Variance Commission and the
City Planning Department were
all heavily involved in getting the
project off the ground.
The City utilized two consul-
tants, Martin Landers of Plan
Tools LLC and Paul Mills of Rus-
sell + Mills, in the project’s design
phase.
City crews will be installing the
new signs in coming days. Utiliz-
ing the City’s workforce is less ex-
pensive than hiring a private con-
tractor, according to City Planner
Louis Fineberg, who spoke in an
interview on Friday.
Fineberg said the City received
a grant of $224,437 from the Colora-
do Department of Transportation
(CDOT) to complete the upcom-
ing Phases Two and Three of the
Wayfinding Signage project. He
said the brown color of the signs
was decided upon as part of the
design phase of the project, and
it is intended to be in harmony
with the color of the bricks in city
streets and that make up many lo-
cal buildings.
“The grant we have from CDOT
is to cover Phases Two and Three
of the project, which is the infor-
mation kiosks and gateway sig-
nage,” Fineberg said. “Right now,
we’re jumping through the hoops
on that.”
Gateway signage is intended
to feature iconic images, such
as the famed “Trinidad” sign on
Simpson’s Rest. Fisher’s Peak is
the City’s most famous landmark,
and the peak will inspire the new
gateway signage. Three types of
gateway signage will be featured:
primary gateway signage at City
entry points, such as the City lim-
its; secondary gateway signage an-
nouncing entry into a City district,
such as “Entering Trinidad Cora-
zon de Trinidad (Heart of Trini-
dad) National Historic District;”
and tertiary gateway signage rein-
forcing the City’s identity within
a district, such as the “Trinidad”
