Welcome!

The purpose of this web site is to preserve, celebrate and enhance Fremont County's rich historic heritage.   It is designed to assist both local citizens and visitors and will serve as a voice for the Fremont Heritage Commission discussed below

Fremont County will be soliciting letters of interest regarding representation on this important commission with an outline regarding expectations and roles of commission representatives.  The commission will be crafted under the authority of Fremont County and will also include ex officio representation from the City of Canon City and Florence (two municipalities) and possibly other applicable entities.  This web site will serve as public voice for that commission and I look forward to its establishment!  Dan
