Welcome a NEW BOARD member Finn Ruehrdanz with the Colorado Rapids Youth Soccer Club. He was voted in by City Council on June 25, 2018.

Meet Havana Banana

Scott Goodwin, owner of All Seasons Rent All, has always had a gorilla mascot for the store. A few years ago we did a “name the gorilla” contest and the name

“Havana Banana” was chosen by All Seasons’ customers. Havana Banana

would ride in the bucket lift in front of the store, but he was looking a little shabby

after being out in the elements for several years. With the recent remodel of All Seasons, Scott found a new gorilla,

15

Havana Banana II, to sit on the ledgestone wall in front of the

building. Very handsome!
