COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) The final touches are now in place for the 99th annual climb to the top of Pikes Peak for the elite team that lights the traditional New Year s Eve fireworks seen from across Colorado Springs.
Since 1922, the AdAmAn Club has made its annual winter trek to the summit of Pikes Peak to fire a midnight blast of fireworks to help the region ring in the new year. The club started when Fred Barr and four of his adventurous friends made a New Year’s eve trek to the summit sponsored by the Gazette Telegraph. At 9 p.m., the group fired a signal rocket to let all know they had arrived safely and all was well.
