No… although if this event sounds like fun, you should check out the Colorado Parrot Head Club. We host lots of great events and house concerts during the year. Join the phlock and have lots of phun!

Where do I park?

There is limited parking around the area, so try and carpool or use a ride-share service if possible. You can park on the streets in the neighborhood west of Pete’s place. You can also park in the restaurant parking lot on the north side of his house. Do not park in the Marshall Liquor Store parking lot or at the shop directly next door to the south of Pete’s house.

How can I help make PWAP a success?

It takes a phlock to throw off the Party With a Purpose each year! If you’re interested in volunteering or if you can donate items for our silent auction or raffle baskets, we would greatly appreciate your help! Reach out to our CPHC leaders, Pete and Robin at to find out how you can donate an item and/or provide help for this event.

What charities will benefit from this event?

The 2024 PWAP will benefit My Fairy Dawg Mother and Family Promise of Greater Denver.

My Fairy Dawg Mother Rescue was founded in an effort to save abused and neglected dogs from across the United States and pair them with loving and stable Colorado families. They are a Colorado-based non-profit dog rescue focused on finding the perfect long-term home for each dog brought under their rescue umbrella. My Fairy Dawg Mother Rescue, Inc., established in early 2011,  boasts a 100% success rate with over 800 dogs that have been placed since the creation of the rescue.

For the past 27 years, Family Promise of Greater Denver has been dedicated to helping the lives of families experiencing homelessness. Their mission is to form relationships with families at risk of or experiencing homelessness by providing shelter, meals, and a spectrum of supportive services as they obtain permanent stability. They provide these prevention services before families reach a crisis, as well as case management if they become homeless. They help families rebuild their lives.
