This is what Boulder & Longmont wait for every year–the opening of  the Farmer’s Market on Wednesday evenings. I love the Saturday market too, but Weds nights are really special: less people, delicious food, great veggies and fruits, live music, food, & drink. This is a very family-friendly event. More information here. [Weds. 4:00 to 8:00pm]

Colorado’s Chautauqua Is A Real Boulder Gem!   Leave a comment

Chautauqua Dining Hall at Dusk in Boulder, CO

Chautauqua is a wonderful gem in Boulder! This area offers access to some of the best hiking, dining, concerts, learning opportunities and places to just lay out your picnic blanket in the Boulder area. Nestled up against the Flatirons on Baseline Road, Chautauqua is literally a gateway to the Boulder lifestyle.

Chautauqua came to be in the 1890s as the result of a desire by the Texas Board of Regents to create a summer school for teachers at a desirable destination. It has continued to offer housing, community, and educational opportunities. Learn more about the history of the Colorado Chautauqua at this great article byyourboulder.com.

What do you want to do at Chautauqua? There are many options including:

Dining: The Chautauqua Dining Hall has been open since the late 1800’s, serving delicious meals indoors or on the majestic wrap around deck. Get more details here – www.chautauqua.com/dining-hall/overview

Lodging: If you have out of town guests or just want a retreat of your own consider lodging at Chautauqua.  Take a look at what they offer –www.chautauqua.com/lodging/reservations

Events: Find yourself at a movie, concert, performance, or community educational event onsite at the lovely Chautauqua. Learn about upcoming events and buy tickets – www.chautauqua.com/events/upcoming-events

What is your favorite thing to do at Chautauqua in the summer?
