Last November, Lisa Ricks-Deines bought the building, and renovated the upstairs rooms to establish an eightroom boarding house. Downstairs are Wolf Mountain Restaurant, Professional Massage & Bodywork and Spike Reedy Insurance. This summer, chiropractor Colton Roesener moved his accent on health practice from down the block to the office space next door to Wolf Mountain.

More is on the way. “I’m going to open a video store and an artisan market,” said Ricks-Deines. She asked around town about un-met retail needs, and was told that a video store would fit nicely. She acknowledged that Hayden residents can and do download movies from the Internet, but said the endresult was poor- quality viewing. She investigated opening a Red Box outlet for video rentals, but learned that agreements with movie studios mean a long wait for movies to become available. Ricks-Deines realized that as an independent, she could bring popular video movies to Hayden, quicker than some of the bigger companies. “I also wanted to establish a market where artists and artisans in the Yampa Valley could exhibit and sell their work,” said Ricks-Deines. “There are a lot of talented people in the area.” She said that the two businesses should be up and running by mid-October. New BBQ We Be Smokin’, an eastern Kansas barbecue restaurant, advertised in September for a manager for a proposed Hayden barbecue. Owner Bob Zibell, contacted by phone, said the proposed restaurant (across the street from the Hayden Post Office), could open in October or November.
According to Dean Smith, assistant airport manager, one kiosk would specialize in ski sales and rentals. Arriving passengers could order ski equipment at the kiosk, and have it delivered to wherever they’re staying in Steamboat Springs. “We’d been kicking this idea around for a while and decided to try it,” said Smith, noting that five ski sales/rental concerns were interested enough to show up at a required This is a single ad for Hayden Pilates meeting. add: The second pilot program would specialize FEDEX/ Hayden ClassesinTues. & Thurs.

New owner for lot The empty lot on the northwest corner of Walnut and Jefferson has been purchased by Rob Orr, for $65,000. The lot is the former site for the old Broken Drum restaurant. “I am looking at all viable commercial options. I’m heartened by the energy and commitment of the Hayden EDC and Revitalization Committee and will be observing their implementation efforts in the historic downtown area,” said Orr. Location change
