The city was happy for the election of the Thirtieth Anniversary Monarchs, who were Emperor XXX Chuck Mecham and Empress XXX Greta B Quick. Chuck and Greta did many things different during their Reign. One of which was bringing into existence name tags for dues paid members  to be able to show to those who were donating money who the membership was. They also took their fundraising efforts back to the community with a very strong Imperial Family, who were just that, a family. Prince Royale Johnny Romero, Princess Royale Scarlett Fever, King Father John Schlegel, Queen Mother Scotti Carlyle, Grand Duke Gary Burchfield, Grand Duchess Sue Anne Michaels, Czar George Wright, Czarina Ida Maybe, Marquis Richard Pritekel, Marquisa Brandi Alexander, Don Andy Johnson, Reigna Kelly Michaels, Count Baker Wolf, Countess Debbee Summers, Baron Maggie, Baroness Molotovia Cocktail, Viscount Jon Crenshaw, Viscountess Katrina St. Andrews, Crown Prince Jeff Hoppe, Crown Princess Mercedes, Lord Lamar Cooper and Lady Rebecca Tucker worked together as a well-oiled team, making the jobs of Chuck and Greta much easier. 

During June, the Family worked very hard putting together an award-wining Crowd Favorite float for the Gay Pride Parade. Chuck, Greta and the I.C.R.M.E. were also honored for their accomplishments in the Community at a fundraising dinner for the Center, hosted by the Pink Pages (a community phone number directory magazine). The Court was also a highlighted organization in the Summer/Fall issue of the magazine. Chuck and Greta had a great year with the PR Ball, Snow Ball, and King of Hearts all being held at the Executive Tower Inn. PR Ball kicked off the reign In the Den of Geisha Girls and Samurai Warriors. Snowball was Christmas in the Rockies held on November 22nd, and King of Hearts, A Pow-Wow on the Imperial Emerald High Plains was on March 20th.

At Smack-A-Star where community dignitaries are auctioned off, Greta did a fabulous job. Greta was auctioned off for a total of $700, which beat the previous record of $600, which was held by Empress 24 Nina Montaldo. Emperor Chuck and Empress Greta were very proud to host Coronation XXXI, Springtime in the Rockies  Holidays in Colorado where many of the citys bars, businesses, and organizations were not only in attendance but also joined in the festivities to celebrate the thirtieth reign accomplishments and to commemorate the courts Thirtieth Anniversary Year. They also took a chance and moved Victory Brunch back into the community. It was held in a bar, Charlies, for $10 per person. Not only did it make a profit, but Wayne Jakino, Charlies General Manager, also made a donation to kick off the 31st reigns White Rose fund and Pink Ribbon Campaign in the amount of $1.50 per ticket sold for each cause.
