What's Happening in Boulder County!
If you haven’t checked out the University of Colorado’s world class operas, you’re missing out! This weekend is Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro, a tale of love and intrigue. Ticket prices start at $14, a bargain!
A free preview is today (Wednesday) at noon at the Imig music building.
Register your tot now for the next session of CycleTykes. Geared towards kids 2-10 years old, this energetic class will teach technique and safety to kids of all skill levels.
They start the littlest ones out on Stider bikes, learning balance and how to start and stop. The older kids get to the fun stuff: jumps and wheelies!
Boulder Indoor Cycling is located at Pearl and Foothills. The fall session runs October 17-December 18, 2011.
It’s that time of year: pumpkin carving, corn mazes and hay rides. Cottonwood Farms is just East of Boulder on 75th & Arapahoe. They offer a day at their farm where you can pick your own pumpkin, check out the farm animals and buy local organic produce. Admission is free and they are open through October 31, 2011. 
Today is the last Wednesday Farmer’s Market of the season so come on out to stock your freezer with fall produce and have one last dumpling dinner with Tres Pupusas. Not that you can’t have pupusas for breakfast on one of the remaining Saturday markets too!
Looking for something to do with the kiddos this weekend? Wild Bear Ecology Center is hosting it’s 11th Enchanted Forest at Mud Lake Open space outside Nederland. Fairy performances, live music and delicious food from Wild Mountain Smokehouse and Crust Rustic Wood Fired Pizza.
Saturday, Oct 1, 2011, 10am-5pm. For more info, click here.
You’ve eaten in Boulder, but have you really eaten Boulder? The folks at Local Table Tours will take you on a culinary tour of downtown Boulder, dining at the best of the best, thoughtfully paired with wine or other beverage. Downtown tours run most weekends and they do private tours, corporate events or any special occasion you may have.
Boulder Walking Tours has extended their fall schedule through October 1, 2011. The tours take place on Saturdays and are exceptionally interesting in local lore. This is a fun thing to do with out of town guests or just a family outing on a fall day.
Friday, Saturday and Sunday bring one of Pearl Street’s most fun events – Downtown Boulder’s Fall Festival. The festival has something for everyone with a carnival for the kids and microbrews for those over 21. There is sure to be a strong kick off with the Nacho Men playing Friday evening starting at 7:30. If you haven’t seen their particular brand of fun, come on out and check it out!
Along with the music and carnival is the Fall Festival Art Show on Saturday and Sunday featuring loads of variety: jewelry, painting, photography and our favorite: recycled/re-purposed art!

The second annual Boulder Green Streets gets underway Sunday, September,18th from 10am-4pm. Pearl Street from 15th to Folsom is closed to automobile traffic in order to celebrate other forms of transportation and active lifestyles. We love their term “street liberation!”
