Boomers Meet Baseball and Modern Art in Denver

Taking advantage of its location in Denver, Building for Boomers & Beyond: 50+ Housing Symposium 2007 will feature several extracurricular events at some of the city’s most unique and enjoyable spots.

Special events include:

Colorado Rockies Baseball Game and Pre-Game Picnic
Tuesday, May 29 The Denver Art Museum
5:30 p.m. – 10:00 p.m.
$55 per person
Join your fellow symposium attendees for a night of fun at Coors Field, home of the Colorado Rockies baseball team. Start off the evening with a pre-game picnic featuring traditional ballpark fare and a cold brewski. Then kick back and watch the Colorado Rockies take on 2006 World Series champions, the St. Louis Cardinals.

Denver Day Out
Thursday, May 31

Spouses and others not attending the symposium’s educational sessions can spend the day on a walking tour of some nearby Denver sights — starting with a tour of the U.S. Mint at Denver. A lunch of contemporary cuisine at Palettes Restaurant is followed by Tom “Doctor Colorado” Noel in a lively and entertaining presentation of "A Liquid History and Water Hole Guide." Spend the rest of the afternoon exploring the Denver Art Museum, including Daniel Libeskind’s new Frederic C. Hamilton wing.
