I was able to get some one-on-one time with NWSS President and CEO Paul Andrews on the last day of 2022’s 116th year of the NWSS (Sunday January 23). We discussed the challenges the NWSS had to go through in 2022 as well as looking ahead to the future of the historic venue and its on-going billion dollar expansion project. The Fence Post magazine has published and posted the Q&A online.

Paul Andrews, President and CEO of the National Western Stock Show, rides into the Denver Coliseum arena while being announced to the crowd before the start of the championship round of rodeo at the 2022 NWSS. “This year was a must do,” said Andrews about the 2022 NWSS after 2021’s event was canceled due to COVID.

My article with photos regarding the CSU Spur campus construction occurring as part of the massive National Western Center expansion and renovation in Denver, CO is published online on the website of The Fence Post magazine, and should be out in this upcoming Monday’s print edition.

In a September 2021 photo taken from the roof of CSU Spur’s Terra building, the view takes in the nearly completed Vida building in the foreground that is scheduled to be open and ready for tours during the upcoming January 2022 National Western Stock Show. To the left of the photo is a corner of the Hydro building that is under construction and will be finished later in 2022.

I have an article submitted that should be published soon about the construction on the three buildings comprising the CSU Spur campus located on the grounds of the National Western Center in Denver, CO. One is the Hydro building, which will be focused on water education, research, and issues.

An exterior shot of CSU Spur’s Hydro building under construction in September 2021. According to CSU Spur spokespeople, the Hydro building has connectivity down to the river and lots of flexible programming spaces. On the right side of the building is the start of what will be a signature circular staircase that is symbolic of a river eddy.

Another building is the Terra building, which will be focused on education, research, and issues regarding land and agriculture.

Amid the ongoing noise and activity of heavy machinery and construction, CSU Spur Director of Education Kathryn Venzor (foreground, left) describes the construction progress and purposes of the campus to a group touring the site. The building under construction in the background is the exterior of the Terra building, which will focus on land and agriculture.

The third building is the CSU Spur Vida building, which will be focused on human and animal health. Vida should be complete and ready to tour by the time the upcoming National Western Stock Show arrives in January of 2022. But that image will be a separate blog post in the future!
