Third graders have been studying the history of Colorado and last week their teacher was a real mountain man. Doc Grizzly set up camp on the east lawn to demonstrate how trappers and traders lived in the frontier days. Students, dressed in old-fashioned attire, brought items to trade with each other such as beef jerky, buttons and cookies. It was a fun way to bring a little piece of the old west to Graland!
