A Message From Keith
Pura Vida, from its inception, has committed to giving back to the Keith Moorecommunity and helping Denver-based organizations achieve amazing feats.
Brent's Place is a home-away-from-home for cancer patients and their families that do not live in Denver, but have a child in cancer treatment. Brent's Place accommodates the entire family for these extended stays, as well as offers apartments that allow the family to remain together. The apartment's aggressive hygiene standards approved through the BMT team at Children's Hospital keeps the child and family safe...and together during a very difficult time.

Pura Vida is hosting the Roadless Ride on Friday May 7th for Brent's Place. Throughout the day one hour classes will be offered both inside the club, as well as outside the club (in the breezeway to the west of the building). View the schedule and then register at brentsplace.org.
Registration for classes begins at $40 and our goal is to fill up each class. We need your help. Please consider taking a class for a very good cause. Cherry Creek North is involved and there will be plenty of food and beverages, as well as fantastic auction items. The day itself is not only rewarding and important, but it is a lot of fun. Please join us.

A few updates:
Starting in May, we will offer healthy snacks, protein and energy drinks, an assortment of healthy sandwiches and salads and other items in the space that was used formally for retail on Floor 2. These items can be charged to your Pura Vida account. We hope you enjoy this added amenity.

Studio 1 on the first floor is fully operational. Please see the fitness concierge for complete details and a schedule of programs. There are some incredible classes you'll want to check out.

Beginning May 31 (Memorial Day) through September 6 (Labor Day) Pura Vida will be adjusting the weekend hours and closing the club at 7pm on Saturday and Sunday for the summer months.

The Cherry Creek Sneak is this Sunday, April 25. Please note that accessing the club and garage could be challenging from 8am - 12 noon. The club will be open regularly scheduled weekend hours.

Member Appreciation Spa Week begins April 26th. Enjoy $50 select services. If you have not experienced the many new therapists at Vital, now is the time. Call Vital for details.

Thank you all for a fantastic two year anniversary celebration. We had a great time and I hope you did as well. The entire staff thanks you for supporting our dream and making the club a success. Through the last two years you have made Pura Vida a place to be proud of. We have made many friends along the way and look forward to meeting more.

Happy Spring.

Keith
