The Platteville Historical Society will hold a rededication of the Fort St. Vrain monument on Saturday, September 15, 2001 at 10:00 AM at the monument site. This is in recognition of the monuments inclusion in the State Registry of Historical Properties by the Colorado Historical Society. The contributions of the Daughters of the American Revolution will also be recognized. If you have questions, you can call Ruth Gartrell at 970-737-1942.

Diane Brotemarkel's new book, "Fort St. Vrain, A Viliage Along the Platte," a history of the founding and demise of the fort will be available at the dedecation.
