==History== Colorado State Legislature made Washington County out of larger [[Weld County, Colorado|Weld County]] in 1887. In 1889, Washington County's eastern half formed [[Yuma County, Colorado|Yuma County]]. In 1903, [[Arapahoe County, Colorado|Arapahoe County]] ceded its eastern portion to Washington County to create its present form. Like many Counties in Eastern Colorado, [[The Great Depression]] affected Washington County, bringing its population down significantly. Recently growth has been stagnant. Washington County's Eastern Colorado Roundup is home to [[Colorado]]'s first home-owned carnival held on every July annually. There are activities such as rodeos, various rides, and animals to see.
