Gilpin schol activities

However, Commissioner
Marie Mornis continued
to voice complaints about
the proposed pantry, say-
ing the county could spend
money to fix the existing
one rather than build a new
one. Hollingsworth coun-
tered that discussion of a

Gilpin’s 2024 budget in-
cludes $1.3 million to build
the new pantry, although
the county has been seeking
grants to lower its overall
potential investment. The
new pantry is proposed
for the south side of Nor-
ton Drive, almost directly
across from the Gilpin
Community Center. It will
replace the double-wide
modular used for decades
at nearby 101 Norton Drive.
