OLDE TOWN ARVADA TRIVIA
Did You Know...
The first JeffCo officer slain in the line of duty was in Arvada!
Clarence Bunch Fugate: Killed in the line of duty October 17, 1940 in Arvada, Colorado
Undersheriff Fugate went to Lee's Tavern in Arvada with intentions of arresting Jack Carleton, the bartender, who earlier in the evening shot a man in the bar for flirting with his wife. Fugate was accompanied by two deputy sheriffs, who stood by the doorway while the undersheriff entered the empty tavern and confronted Carleton. During a brief interview relating to the location of Carleton's gun, the suspect told Fugate that his gun was in the kitchen. Fugate searched the kitchen briefly, found no gun, and returned to the bar where Carleton was waiting. Without warning, Carleton opened fire on Fugate, killing the undersheriff. The two deputy sheriffs returned fire on Carleton, wounding him five times before taking him into custody. Carleton recovered from his wounds and was sentenced to life in prison without parole.

A story of budding romance and feigned identity, this Oscar Wilde play is a humorous exposé on British society and pokes gentle fun at pretense, all in the context of well-crafted language and delightful repartee. Oscar Wilde’s classic period piece remains as witty, engaging, and relevant as when it first premiered in 1895 London. Visit the Arvada Center for ticket prices and times.
The HOTA annual meeting was held on Wednesday Nov 16th where 2 of our fantastic community partners were honored. We would like to thank again the Arvada Festivals Commission and The City of Arvada Traffic Division for their continued support of Olde Town.
