A delegation from Club 20 traveled to Pagosa Springs last week in order to hold a caucus and present information about the recent work of the organization.
There are 22 counties in western Colorado that participate in Club 20, and every other year 11 of them hold a caucus in each county to elect a voting member to represent the county.
During last week’s caucus, which took place at 12:30 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 16, in the conference room at Boss Hogg’s, local businessman J.R. Ford was elected as the voting member from Archuleta County, while Mary Jo Coulehan was elected as the first alternative.
