Gary Blubaugh

I graduated from Emporia State Teachers College with a BS. in Biology. I received my Masters from the University of Northern Colorado. I spent 33 years teaching in Jefferson County Schools in Colorado.
My wife, Joyce, and I have one child, Jeremy. Jeremy graduated from the Un. Of Wyoming with a degree in architectural engineering and is working in Denver. Joyce and I have lived in Lakewood, Co. for 40 years. I retired in 2001 and have been doing volunteer work with Jefferson County Open Space, teaching a fly fishing class, acting as a host at Pine Valley Ranch Park, and acting as a cliff-nesting raptor observer. I have also been volunteering at Denver Botanical Gardens & Hudson Gardens in the water gardens area. I also volunteer as a driver for the South Platte Trolley. I also still get into the classroom as a substitute.

The funniest thing I remember from my years at MHS was the time one Halloween night my junior year when George Shirk drove his dad's old car down the street by the Community Center with his brother Bill on the running board throwing eggs, all the time being chased by officer Vincent with siren and lights flashing.
Some of my best times at MHS were spent with Dick Bell, Danny Frantz, Mike Edwards, Mike Pierce, Dale Sprague and Gary Goff.
