Reading to a dog
Budding readers can try their new skill while reading to a dog. Each dog is a gentle, certified therapy dog who will listen, without criticism, to your child’s every word. To sign up for Read to the Dog, or for more information, contact Laurie Watkins, 303-441-3141 or e-mail readtothedog@boulderlibrary.org.
game nights are offered at the Boulder Main library and Meadows branch
Once children are in school, story times may not be what you are looking for to entertain the kids. While the Boulder libraries have many programs to help children with their reading, they have some other fun activities available as well.
Various game nights are offered at the Boulder Main library and Meadows branch. Main’s teen space hosts the Teen Game Night from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. every Tuesday. The second Tuesday of the month was expanded to include World of Warcraft (WOW) in the learning lab of the Main library.
For the younger children, ages 5 to 18, check out the board game “Go” at the Main library on Sunday afternoons from 2 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Go is a 4,000-year-old game from China. Taking only minutes to learn, “Go” teaches basic sportsmanship of concentration and respect for one’s opponent.
Bring the whole family for Family Game Night on Fridays at the Meadows library from 4 p.m. to 5:45 p.m. Games include various board games and Wii. While the majority of participants are families with elementary school-aged children, residents from the nearby nursing homes are known to come partake in the games.
Today -Wednesday 9/29/2010 FREE Boulder REI — Learning Through Nature: Developing Social & Physical Skills
Boulder REI — Learning Through Nature: Developing Social & Physical
Skills
• Date: Wednesday 9/29/2010
• Event Location: Boulder REI
• Time: 7:00 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. (MDT)
Recent research is proving how important nature is to brain development especially in relation to social, emotional and cognitive skills. This is true for all children, but especially those diagnosed with ADHD, or kids who can't seem to focus, pay attention or have social issues.
Being outside helps kids develop a sense of quiet, calm, and receptivity to impressions and energy as they develop a personal relationship with nature. We are all born with the capacity for certain talents, our "seeds," which need the right nutrients to
grow and reach their potential. Nature is one of those key nutrients, but how it is cultivated and how children experience and connect to it will determine how it affects them.
Join Nancy Monson, Director at the Running River School, to learn how bringing nature closer to your kids' will nurture and change their lives in a positive and lasting way.

With Care in Focus, Artist and Photographer Bryan Rowe and There With Care Join Together for Colour; An Evening of Fine Wine, Food, and Art for a Fine Cause.
Award-winning Photographer Bryan Rowe and There With Care have joined for an illuminating night at Mateo's on September 30, 2009 at 7 p.m. for a There With Care fall benefit. The event will include music, art, small gourmet plates, open bar and sales of Rowe's art. Rowe will transform the restaurant's landscape with various pieces of his recent collection.
"The goal was to create an interactive event that embodies what color is. My work is shot from an artistic angle, it challenges the eye. The attention to detail and unique elements will make this a really fun exhibition."
Originally born in South Africa, Rowe's work has been influenced by the vibrant cultures throughout Africa. He approached There With Care after hearing about the organization's work, wanting to bring more awareness to the organization and its cause.
Since its establishment in 2005, There With Care has helped almost 600 children and families across Colorado facing critical illness. There With Care provides support through various programs helping relieve the everyday stresses that families encounter in crisis.
"We love to collaborating with different people throughout the community to create unique and unforgettable experiences that are not only a joy to attend, but also make a big difference in the lives of the families we serve," said Dana Bacardi, Development Director. In addition, with each piece of purchased art, There With Care will give the buyer the opportunity to dedicate part of the funds to plant a tree in the yards of neighbors who have lost their homes in the Four Mile Canyon fire.
Proceeds from the art sales will benefit There With Care. Tickets are $75, and are limited. Tickets are 50% tax deductible. There With Care is a 501(c)3 organization

Cottonwoods Farm now open
Cottonwood Farm Brings Fall Fun to Boulder
Even if the temperature makes you think summer is still here, a quick trip out to Cottonwood Farm reminds us that fall really is here.
Open daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. until Oct. 31, Cottonwood Farm located at 75th and Arapahoe, is a quick drive from most parts of Boulder. With free admission and a beautiful view of the front range, this makes a great outing for kids of all ages.
On a recent afternoon after school, we found bountiful pumpkins, beautiful fall displays ready for the perfect fall picture, farm animals up close, a fun straw bale maze, and we even made it through a corn maze for the first time - we usually have to cheat to get out. Don't forget to get the little red wagon to pull your pumpkins along.
Cottonwood Farm offers more than that, on weekends they offer wagon rides for $3 and seeing working steam engines. From pumpkins to winter squash, all of Cottonwood Farm's produce is organic. Along with produce, they sell corn stalk bundles, decorating gourds, ornamental multi-colored corn, and hay bales.

BoulderGreenStreets.org "Ciclovia" This SUNDAY!
Boulder's First Ciclovia
Boulder Green Streets (BGS) promotes active, healthy living, sustainability and strong community. We do this by creating expanded public, park-like spaces through large-scale street liberations and linked neighborhood block parties. Extensive and free activity programming gets all ages, economic levels, genders and ethnicities out to play together to experience sustainability first hand. This years event will take place on Sunday, September 19th, 2010 from 8am-4pm. The route starts on East Pearl and runs from 15th to Folsom. There will be numerous zones where participants can enjoy over 50 free classes, workshops and activities along the route.Hometown Parade to Honor the Four Mile Firefighters is being held Sunday, September 19th
A one-mile-long, Hometown Parade to Honor the Four Mile Firefighters is being held Sunday, September 19th, at 2 PM in Downtown Boulder. It will begin at 15th & Pearl Street and end at 2400 Pearl. Parade marchers include firefighters, sheriff and police officers, volunteers, evacuees, and Boulder City and County staff and Council Members. Led by a Samba Marching Band, the Honor the Firefighters Parade will continue east on Pearl St. and end at the park at Folsom & Pearl Streets. Dog evacuees, and dogs up for adoption from the Boulder and Longmont Humane Societies are welcome to march, on leash.
The Honor the Firefighters Parade is being incorporated into the day-long, City-sponsored BoulderGreenStreets.org "Ciclovia" event. They have already closed the roads on Sunday, for community cycling and walking. Ciclovia organizer Hillary Griffith, has donated the marching band.
Heartfelt signs of thanks, handmade by students from the local schools, will line the parade route. Kids' sign art is being coordinated by Kristin Fitzgerrell of Studio22Art. A fire truck, parked at 15th and Pearl Streets, will announce the start of the Parade with its siren. Volunteers and evacuees will be identified by colored armbands.
For more information, contact Parade organizer Alexia Parks, 303-443-3697, director of The Education Exchange Network.

Hey Its FREE!
I love free stuff. I love getting mail, so it is no surprise that I would be thrilled about the website "Hey its Free". This website is so awesome because "Goob" as he is called, pre screens everything to make sure that it is totally free. I get samples of snacks, perfume, coupons- sometimes for full size items in my grocery store, and other various items in the mail ALL FREE. There is not even a charge for postage. Goob is also hilarious in his comments about the items available.
I would however, suggest that you start a new email address that is designated for only your requests for free goodies. You can start a Gmail or a Yahoo email account for, you guessed it, FREE. Your requests for free goods will generate junk email and you don't want that clogging up your inbox.
