hat can we do to keep moremoney local? What can wedo to get more money com-ing into our economy from
I-40 and other sources? How can wehelp individual members of the cham-ber of commerce capitalize on opportu-nities? How can local small businesshelp each other? These are the thingsthat I would like the Grants/CibolaChamber of Commerce to take a leader-ship role in during 2011 and beyond.
I am excited about the opportunity Ihave been given to serve as president ofthe Grants/Cibola County Chamber ofCommerce. My intent is to attempt tobuild on the work of previous chamberleaders.
We have seven brand new directorsand eight directors who will continue toserve. My first objective is to orient thenew directors and get their input andideas. Another important action will befor all members of the leadership teamto listen to the membership. By listen-ing to our new board members and ourmembership we can identify what ourpriorities need to be.
My personal view is that the purposeof the Grants/Cibola County Chamberof Commerce is to promote our localbusinesses and doing business locally. Afundamental aspect of this is addressing
the underlying issues that affect thequality of life in our communities. It isalso about making Cibola County agood place to work and a great place tovisit.
I also understand that the chamber ofcommerce is only a small cog in a largewheel. The wheel of progress for ourcommunity and for our local businesseshas many players. This includes; CibolaCounty, the City of Grants, the Villageof Milan, Acoma, Laguna and otherorganizations like MainStreet, theEconomic Development Corporation,the Lodgers Tax Board and similargroups.
One of my highest priorities as presi-dent will be to strengthen the partner-ship with these entities and to increasethe focus of all of these organizationson making Cibola County a better placeto do business and on increasing theamount of commerce that occurs inCibola County.
Getting all of our business supportand governmental units working togeth-er will be a great start; however the part-nership must include all of our localbusinesses and really our entire commu-nity.

would like to begin by thanking theGrants/Cibola County Chamber of CommerceBoard of Directors for its continued support inthe past year. 2010 was a year of change and
movement. I can truly say that I am looking for-ward to 2011 being a year of moving forward in myposition as executive director. The future holdsmany opportunities for changing the course of thechamber of commerce with the help and directionof the dynamic new board of officers and directors.I know that we as an organization will be focusingon improving the business climate in our communi-ty and as always energizing the quality of life for allcounty residents and promoting tourism county-wide.
I never cease to be amazed by what CibolaCounty and Grants and Milan have to offer bothvisitors and residents alike. We are blessed to live ina community that has each other’s best interests atheart. This may not always be evident, but if youlook closely, the tight knit feeling of a “never giveup” attitude and optimistic nature comes shiningthrough time and time again. It is this “never giveup attitude” and the drive to improve our commu-nity that makes my job exciting, challenging andrewarding every day. I will strive to make 2011 ayear of improvement, growth and achievementboth personally and professionally. I look forwardto reaching out to our wonderful community tomake the chamber’s goals become a reality. We willwork to offer our membership first-rate service,business and networking opportunities and leavethem not having to ask “what’s in it for me.” Butthat is the topic for a future article.
In the mean time I would like to thank everyonein our community for their continued support of theGrants/Cibola County Chamber of Commerce andeach other. Lets make 2011 a fantastic year!

made an investment in our community and the El

tomers’ support,” she said.

They have visited more than 50
countries in the world and yet
they’re here. Cibola County
remains the first love of Bob and
Ava Peets.
"The culture, the people," Ava
said. "The climate and the terrain,"
Bob followed. "There is no place
like Cibola County," they said.
"It was love at first sight," Ava
said in an exclusive interview with
the Beacon last week with husband
Bob at her side.
The couple moved to Grants in
1976 after Bob's short employment
with Kerr McGee near Gallup.
Bob and Ava brought along two
children to New Mexico as he
came out of retirement to work in
the mines once again.
Bob had three children from his
first marriage, two daughters and
one son, while Ava had two from
hers. Bob’s first wife passed away
after a lengthy illness.
The couple met in Missouri and
married after working with each
for two years.
Bob was retired for only seven
months when he received a call
from Kerr McGee. The company
wanted him to come to New
Mexico to manage its mine. Bob is
a registered professional engineer.
Now, at age 96, he still maintains
his professional engineering regis-
tration in Pennsylvania.
"He's always had a passion for
mining," Ava said. "The industry
has been good to us. We've had a
good long life together."
Bob left Kerr McGee to work for
Western Nuclear (A subsidiary of
Phelps Dodge at the time).
Bob managed Western Nuclear
for only nine years until the urani-
um mining industry came to a halt
in the area.
"I turned off the lights," he said
as he looked back to that January
day in 1985 and his portable office
was getting picked up. "It was a
double-wide mobile home and it
was just towed away.
"All I ever wanted to do was min-

ing," said Bob, and that’s all he has done. Even today,
he is a member of the local Economic Development
Board, a group highly in favor of responsible mining.
Bob is past president of New Mexico Mining
Association.
Bob and Ava assisted in the creation of the New
Mexico Mining Museum which is housed in the
Grants/Cibola County Chamber of Commerce build-
ing in downtown Grants. They were also involved in
the Society of Mining Engineers for many years.
While Bob spent much time turning dirt, Ava
turned her skills to canvas. Today, she is one of Cibola
County's favorite artists.
"Churches are my favorite item to paint," Ava said.
"Each has its own character and I love to transfer that
character to canvas with oil paint.
"Ever since I was a little child," she said, "I always
wanted to be an artist. The passion’s just there."
Today she averages 15 paintings a year. Ava is an
active member of the Cibola Arts Council and a past
president.
Ava’s favorite thing to do is travel New Mexico and
golf. However, she has not had much time to do nei-
ther of those lately as she has been "taking care of
me," said Bob with a chuckle.
You can find Ava's art at Cibola General Hospital,
Red Rock Museum in Gallup and the New Mexico
Museum Foundation online gift shop. Her work is
also at many private collectors' homes.
Ava said Cibola County is the perfect place to be an
artist. "There is so much natural beauty here," she
said. She feels that her greatest accomplishment was
when she was president of the Cibola Arts Council
and it was able to move the Double Six Gallery from
an unqualified building on First Street to its currently
new location on Santa Fe Avenue. "And not that it
was just me because there was so much help from
other key people such as Laura Malaj and Bruce
Boynton, to name a couple," she said.
Ava also noted the success of the gallery and coun-
cil would be much less without the City of Grants'
support. "The city has been phenomenal in supporting
the arts council - it would be impossible without
them," she said.
You can see Ava's work online at avapeets.com. She
said the site is currently being rebuilt.

Program is what keeps Bob busy nowadays. "He
makes every meeting," said group President Ron
Williams. Williams, president of the chamber of com-
merce, presented the Peets their Citizen of the Year
award on Saturday night at the annual chamber ban-
quet at the The Inn Best Western. Their daughter,
Shelly, and her family along with special friends sat
with the Peets at the banquet. Todd was unable to
make the event.
Grants Mayor Joe Murrietta nominated Bob and
Ava. "Grants is a better place to live because of the
Peets," said Murrietta as he spoke before they receive
the award. "Tonight, no one deserves the award
more."
Bob's final words in the interview could not have
been said any better in regard to how grateful the cou-
ple feels to have landed here 34 years ago. "I would
not have had it any other way. I am so happy to have
finished my career in Grants.”
The special couple was given a glass plaque that stated -"Bob and Ava Peets, Grants/Cibola County Chamber ofCommerce Citizens of the Year, Jan. 15, 2011."
Congratulations Bob and Ava Peets.

"A landmark in Cibola County"
is how Randolph Collins described
El Cafecito Restaurant as he pre-
sented owners Larry and Angela
Baca with the 'Business of the
Year' award at the annual
Grants/Cibola County Chamber
of Commerce banquet on
Saturday evening. Collins is the
Acoma Pueblo Judge.
"The Bacas are once again
investing in Cibola County as they
are getting ready to open a new El
Cafecito Restaurant that will more
than double their seating capaci-
ty," Collins added. "They invested
in 1986, again in 1991 and again
now in 2011. The Bacas believe in
Cibola County."
The crowd at the banquet came
to a standing ovation as the Bacas
stood to receive the award.
Larry and Angela first opened the
family New Mexican restaurant
with a handshake loan of $16,000.
"Larry Rodgers believed in us," said
Larry. Rodgers was then Grants
State Bank president. He is current-
ly owner of Radio Shack.

"It's in our blood," added Larry. His
grandparents owned Pat's Chili
Parlor and Angela has family in
Washington and Nebraska who are in
the restaurant business. Larry's moth-
er, Loyola, also owned Chief Rancho
in Grants and later opened Loyola's
in Albuquerque.
In 1986 Larry was working in the
mines and Angela was employed at
Diamond G. "He always dreamt of
opening his own restaurant," said
Angela.
"I was tired of her working hard for
someone else and only making mini-
mum wage," Larry followed.
"We got our loan and two weeks
later there we were - El Cafecito
opened," said Larry with a smile.
"Carmen Gutierrez was a God
send," said Angela. "She and I
scrubbed that old Tastee Freez build-
ing for two weeks."

The couple still has the first dollar spent at their
restaurant. A KMIN (radio station) employee was the
first customer at El Cafecito. "He asked for the dollar
and brought it back later that day in a frame," said
Angela as she looked back. The couple made $169
that first day.
What's amazing is that the Baca’s menu has pretty
much stayed the same since day one and their prices
have remained reasonable. "As food’s gone up so has
the price," Angela said. "However, the price never
goes up for quality. If I find a more quality item, we
absorb the increase."
Angela said she once tried to switch her coffee
brand but quickly received complaints from many
customers. So she went back to the old stuff despite
the price being higher but the price stayed the same.
You can eat at El Cafecito Restaurant - breakfast,
lunch or dinner - for $5 to $8, with a drink. Not bad
for good food. And obviously many people like it as
the Bacas are getting ready to nearly double their
seating capacity in a new close to $1 million facility.
“The service will remain the same,” promised
Larry and Angela. "We’ll still make our own tortillas
on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I get in the

line and make some," said Angela.
"Joshua (the eldest son) has got-
ten real good at it. He even twirls
his dough up like the pizza guys,"
she added.
Angela said making tortillas is a
lost art. "You find very few tortilla
makers nowadays," she said.
Along with the new building is
new equipment. As far as the large
items, the Bacas are only carrying
over a fryer, because it is new, and
the current table and chairs going
in the new banquet room. The
room will seat approximately 65
people and reservations for use
will start soon.
The Bacas closed on Saturday
and the opening of the new restau-
rant is tentative. "Be looking in the
Beacon for the announcement of
when the new El Cafecito will
open," said Angela.
Despite all the success, it hasn't
been easy, they said. In 1991 on
Cinco de Mayo (May 5), the first
location burned. Three months
and $100,000 later the couple
opened a new building at the cur-
rent location. Faulty electrical is
what caused the fire.
"There's been many long days,"
said the Bacas. And there still is as
customers see Angela in the
kitchen and Larry pacing the front
counter space Monday through
Saturday. The Bacas will continue
to close on Sunday because they
simply need one day of rest, they
said.
"Jeremy (the youngest son) and I
would sleep under the steam
table," said Joshua. "That was the
warmest place in the building."
“I remember Jeremy in a
basinette while I waited on tables
or cooked," said Angela.
What's their secret to their suc-
cess? "Learn your customers," said
Larry. "You've got to take care of
your customers," he emphasized.
Angela said, "I buy what is best
and everything is made from
scratch."
"And she's a perfectionist,"
joked Larry while Angela was giv-
ing reason.
And one other thing is a big rea-
son for their success, "We love
what we do," said the Bacas. "We
could have sold and retired instead
of opening the new restaurant,"
said Larry. "Instead we expanded.
I can't see myself doing anything
else for the rest of my life."
During the exclusive interview
the Bacas also credited good long
lasting employees to their success.
"She was my right hand," Angela
said of Julie Aragon. Aragon was
a cook for the Bacas for 16 years.
She retired three years ago. And
you can't forget Laveda
Eagle. Eagle was a wait-
ress for Larry's grandpa at
Pat's Chili Parlor and
starting working for the
Bacas shortly after they
opened in 1986. She
retired last year.
"We are honored,"
Angela said as she and
Larry received the cham-
ber's Business of the Year
award. "Thank you for
your business."
Cibola County resi-
dents, including the "butt
buddies," will have to
wait several days or
weeks until they can
again taste the good El
Cafecito beans, potatoes
and red or green chili.
The "butt buddies" are
Wayne Duran, Joe
Mandagaran, Larry and
Candy Rodgers, Ruben
Aranda, Robert and
Cindy Hays and Bob
Brown - a group that has
visited the restaurant for
many years at approxi-
mately 9:30 a.m. every-
day, Monday through
Friday. "We named them
the butt buddies many
years ago because you
can separate them," said
Angela.
Randolph Collins was
right. As long as Larry
and Angela are around
and after 25 years of El
Cafecito Restaurant being
open, the family-owned
business is pretty much a
"landmark" in Cibola
County.
