Hello and Happy Thursday, Parrot Heads!!
We still have T-shirts left over that we had made for the Parrot Head 5280 Fest (Party with a Purpose) They are really nice! We have white or teal colors, mens cut or ladies v-neck cut. They will be for sale at the meeting in August or you can contact Robin or Pete to arrange getting one. We will have some for sale at the meeting on Saturday. They are $30 each. President Pete is modeling one below:
August Events
August Monthly Meeting: Saturday August 17
6:00pm
Hoppers Sports Bar and Grill, Wheat Ridge
This month, we will be doing a food drive for the Meals on Wheels Program. Their pantry shelves are empty, so please bring canned goods, canned proteins and peanut butter to the meeting on the 17th. Also, please bring dog and cat food for the Meals on Wheels program as well. So many of the “shut ins” have pets who need to eat too. Robin and Lee will deliver the food we collect.
Our monthly charity is Rocky Mountain Feline Rescue. We donate to a lot of dog rescues, because dogs are near and dear to my heart.. so this time.. we will help a cat rescue, because there are a lot of cat lovers amongst us also!
As always, please help us out by brining prizes we add to our raffle!

Colorado Avalanche Game??
We have the possibility to get tickets for 2 games at discounted prices. From what we heard last year, everyone would rather spend a little more and have better seats. The games we are looking at having tickets for are October 12 and January 2.
If we get 75 people to go.. the Avs will open up a room for us to have happy hour in before the game, and will include some neat souvenirs for us to take home. Please contact Pete, Robin or Karen if you are interested, so we can get a head count. Based on the count will determine the price of the tickets. Also, for a little extra $$, we can get Colorado Parrot Head / Colorado Avalanche hockey sweaters. So please let us know if you are interested so we can start planning.
Misc. Events
Escape to Margaritaville is coming to Denver for the holidays!!!
Ticket Sales are closed. Karen will have all the tickets. I will let you know when she has them, and at that point, you will need to make arrangements with Karen to get your tickets. It is not her responsibility to get your tickets to you. We had a few problems with distribution of Rockies tickets, so please make arrangements to take care of your own tickets.
