Holiday Events for friends and family in Douglas County South Metro Denver Colorado this weekend Friday December 18th, Saturday December 19th and Sunday December 20th.
There are so many things to do this holiday season in the area, it’s hard to keep track. Hopefully this list of “things to do” for this weekend will help you to create your new simpler Christmas holiday traditions. 2009 is the year that most residents in Colorado are working to reduce the getting and increase the giving, not of things necessarily, but your time, attention and care to those in your life that really matter the most. Lets step back to smell the holly instead of rushing from store to store buying things instead of memories.
Below you will find a few things that are quite inexpensive and that you can enjoy with your loved one’s.
- Horse drawn carraige rides in Parker Colorado for only $5 a piece. Enjoy this quaint little town just South of Metro Denver. See the slide show and more information here
