Tough Men in Hard Places: A Photographic Collection is featured on the cover of the February edition of Colorado Country Life, a publication of the Colorado Rural Electric Association, which La Plata Electric Association provides to its customers. The magazine will start arriving in mailboxes early next week.

Greenfield has been volunteering at the center since 2007.

“The other volunteers and I say we should pay them for letting us work here,” she said about the task.

The center will hold a special exhibit in conjunction with the book, with the opening reception taking place from 5 to 7 p.m. Feb. 12.
