The bound volumes of the Valley Journal (which the Carbondale Branch Library is in the process of digitizing) chronicle the story of Carbondale from 1975 through 2008. But the folks who worked there have some stories you won't find in print.

Our speaker series continues with a panel of Roaring Fork Rams representing the football boys of the '70s and '80s (including a state final played on our home field), the "threepeat" basketball girls of the '80s and '90s and the soccer boys just a few years back!

When the football boys won the state championship on their home field, and when the basketball girls took the top spot three years in a row, Carbondale cheered. The soccer boys saw support in the lead-up to their 2021 win, but times change.

It’s easy to forget, but we want to make it easy to remember. Join us at 6:30 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 1 at the Third Street Center for a free panel discussion with for Rams!
