| Beginning Dance Class for Children |
| Sign your children up for a fun and energetic dance class, taught by Diane Page and held in the chapel, with music by Aretha Franklin as well as Tchaikovsky. Diane is from the Colorado Ballet Academy, and teaches presently at the Colorado New Style Salsa/Bachata Dance studio. Students will learn the basics of dance technique and will have fun doing so! They will learn why football players study ballet to improve athletic performance and avoid injury. The class will be geared toward boys as well as girls.

| Day of the Dead Celebration |
|
Join us for this participatory and family-friendly (kid price $5 each) afternoon of remembrance, celebration, laughter and story! We take inspiration from the Mexican Día de los Muertos (when people gather to remember and share stories – often funny anecdotes – of departed loved ones) and the Celtic festival of Samhain (when the boundary between this world and the spirit world was believed to be thin. It was thought the souls of the dead revisited their homes seeking hospitality - so a candle was placed in the window to light their way, and a place for them set at the table.) We’ll have an altar – please bring photos and/or mementos. Perhaps a favorite piece of music. Or bring your loved one’s favorite food to share. Ingrid will be making Eric’s “Heavy-Metal S’mores”, and he would insist on having AC/DC's "Back in Black" played! There will be time to tell stories and to give thanks for the joy they brought to our lives. Hearty snacks and drinks provided – and we’ll “raise a glass” in a toast to our beloved dead. | 16 | 9 | 000020.0 | 20 | .0002E7 | 20 | 10/29/23 3:00 PM |

| "Cottage in the Woods" at Rye Mountain Park (30 minutes SW of Pueblo, CO) |
| Spend a fun weekend (2 to 3 nights) with friends and/or family at the base of Greenhorn Mountain. The Jones family is excited to share our 700 sf "cottage in the woods" in 2023 between June 1 and September 29 on dates mutually agreed to. You are surrounded by lovely forest and directly across the street from Rye Mountain Park with hiking trails, biking trails, a disk golf course through the trees, a small river, and even a playground. 15 miles away is Lake Isabel where you can fish, kayak, and paddleboard, and a little further up the street is Bishop's Castle. Our cottage is our personal retreat and not set up as an Airbnb. We would ask guests clean up after themselves and take any garbage and recycling into town for disposal (there is no garbage service). The property uses a 250 gallon cistern for water...which means that there is running cold water, but it is limited so thoughtful conservation is needed (i.e. flush toilets only when necessary). Hot water may not be available. There is a bathtub but not a shower. The kitchen cabinets and counters are very outdated. There is a stovetop, small BBQ, new refrigerator, stocked kitchen, all new furniture, new high quality mattresses, a large TV to watch DVDs (no cable or internet service), and a hammock. Deer are frequent visitors. One bedroom has a bunk bed system w/ trundle that sleeps 4 (1 twin bed plus 2 singles). The living room has a separate sleeping nook for 2 (twin) and a new, comfortable queen sleeper sofa with foam mattress. Our family regularly stays with a total of 8 guests if you don't mind being close. It is very comfortable to sleep 4. Rye, Colorado is 30 minutes southwest from Pueblo, CO (2 1/2 hours from Denver)--this means all the joy of the mountains without the traffic from I-70. | 1 | 0 | 000400.0 | 400 | .00125E7 | 125 | |
