5,280 minutes for education

Denver Public SchoolsThis article in today’s Rocky is really inspiring.  I often have buyers ask me about the Denver Public School system, and I usually send them to school review sites like GreatSchools.net or the district’s website, because, as much as I can talk about different neighborhoods, shopping, amenities, home and location values, I haven’t been in every DPS school.

LIVE Urban at the Highlands Street Fair

June 15th, 2008

One reason I love working at LIVE Urban is their innovative marketing plan - they truly think outside the box.  A perfect example is our booth at the neighborhood street fair, as well as our storefront office and the vibe inside, which carries through not only to the website but also to all of the printed marketing materials.  (Perfect place for a REaltor with a Master’s in Marketing, huh?)

The Stock Show Parade is coming - watch where you step!

January 13th, 2008

ColoradoOn January 15th, Downtown Denver’s financial district, 17th Street, will host some very unique visitors. The annual National Western Stock Show Parade will travel from Union Station to 17th and Tremont. Onlookers will be delighted by herds of sheep, wranglers, stage coaches and even a magnificent grouping of long-horned cattle (with plenty of cowboys and cowgirls to keep them in line).Come celebrate our city’s roots and welcome our four-legged friends at the kick-off of the 102nd National Western Stock Show in Denver.   I love this event - it’s so great to see stockbrokers in suits next to preschoolers on a field trip next to suburban cowboy-wannabes, all lined up on the sidewalk, munching on popcorn and watching the cows, horses, wagons and parade queens go by!

National Western Stock Show Parade
January 15th, Noon – 12:30pm
Union Station  to 17th and Tremont

taste of coloradoWell, here it is the Labor Day weekend, where did the summer go?  One of the great end-of-summer traditions in downtown Denver is the Taste of Colorado.   There is something for everyone at this lively event…carnival rides and cotten candy for the kids, amazing food from over 50 of Colorado’s most popular restaurants for the foodies in the group and great music from some of the hottest regional and national performers to get everyone’s feet stomping.   

Over 250 booths featuring unique arts & crafts, jewelry, furniture and more should delight the shoppers in the group, while the kids can take in the music, magic, clowns and puppets featured on the KidsStage.   The Colorado Mining Foundation is offering free gold panning which is always a crowd pleaser.
