Kokomo City Grapevine is news, information, and innuendo concerning the historic mining community of Kokomo City Colorado and the ten-mile mining district, featuring lifelong Kokomocitian William Sternard.
Founded in 1872, Kokomo City is a mining town in the Colorado Rocky Mountains, located halfway between Copper Mountain and Leadville at 10,695 feet above sea level. Kokomo City is named after Kokomo Gulch, which was named after Kokomo, Indiana, which was named after Ma-Ko-Ko-Mo, an indigenous Miami man who was said to have been one of the four sons of Chief Richardville, the last of the chiefs of the Miami people.
Rumors of Kokomo City's demise after the post office supposedly closed in 1965 are greatly exaggerated. In fact, Kokomo City is a vibrant, thriving community filled with colorful characters from all walks of life, multiple mostly empty mega-shopping malls, too much fast food, and award-winning live theatre presented by the Kokomo City Community Players. Kokomo City Grapevine is your informational gateway to the American West and Colorful Colorado, both past and present.
Councilperson Kelvin McMurtry recounts his Area 51 trip and shares a PowerPoint presentation, detailing his experiences and findings.
