e-Community July 2009

Dear Friends,

As we hit the middle of the summer we wanted to share a list of 21 great ways to enjoy Colorado. Our 113 member agencies not only do great work, they also often have opportunities for you to roll your sleeves up and have fun building a better Colorado. For a night out on the town, consider skipping the dinner and a movie and putting your money where your heart is at a fundraising event with a special emphasis on fun. As you can see from the variety of activities on the list, our member agencies can provide something for everyone.

The list you see below is also available on our blog, the Community Shareholder. Bookmark the page so you can come back to these great ideas the next time you ask yourself the question, "What should we do for fun this weekend?" If you do a volunteer project with a member agency, be sure to share photos and tips on our blog as well. We love it when our community shares!

Enjoy your summer and don't forget that volunteering is a great way to connect with the charities and causes you care about most
