GLBT Sportsfest & Frontrunners - June 16
|
|---|
Frontrunners has a regular Saturday morning run in Denver (and a Sunday morning run in Boulder!). On Saturday June 16, the Denver run will precede the Colorado GLBT Sportsfest held in Congress Park. This is a great opportunity for new people to join the run and for the Frontrunners to be part of the larger GLBT sports community.
 Frontrunners will start and end their run/walk at Congress Park, located just east of Cheesman Park and the best parking will be via the Josephine Rd. entrance at 9th Ave. The group will leave promptly at 9:17. Look for the white canopy with the giant running shoe piņata.
Afterwards, free bagels and drinks will be provided outside in Congress Park. Stick around for the annual GLBT Sportsfest! The event celebrates and showcases the vibrant and diverse LGBT sporting and social groups in Colorado. All are invited to attend this Saturday in the park whether or not you want to participate or try a new sport. Annually featured sports are Colorado Gay Volleyball Association, Denver Gay and Lesbian Flag Football, Colorado Rush Rugby, Denver Frontrunners, Colorado Volleyball Connection, Sunday Afternoon Car Klub, OUTSpokin', SQUID and more. Sportsfest is presented by Team Colorado of the Rockies and Denver Outgames. Learn More.

If you are interested in taking on a 2-hour shift, please contact Mauricio at mshoup@outboulder.org or 303.499.5777.
