Activities
Friday, July 13th - Flying W Ranch, Old western town, eatery and entertainment.
Other activity options:
- Tour the Air Force Academy -- free, neat to see, kids don't have to be "contained"...lots of room to run.
- Travel up Pikes Peak -- we'd have to figure out transportation since it's a drive, but it's so much fun and well worth it
- Garden of the Gods -- a must-do, in my option. It's free, we could pack picnics...gorgeous scenery, lots of room to run and hike, etc.
- Focus on the Family -- there's a great (free!) place for the kids to play...huge slide, things to climb on, fake plane, etc. and then there's all the "ministry" stuff that adults can tour
- Olympic Training Center -- not free, but it's interesting to see. Kinda boring for the kiddos though.
- Cave of the Winds -- really neat underground caves, but not too friendly for the littlest kids
- Pioneer Museum -- part of the Oregon trail
- Old Colorado City -- old, quaint shops set up like back during the Pioneer Times. It's supposed to be the same street that "Dr. Quinn" was to have taken place on. =)
Reunion Video
Mail or email photographs to Christa so that she can make a reunion video. Photos can be from
RVA days (dorm parties, banquets, etc) or from the past 10 years (weddings, graduations, babies, vacations, etc).
