COLORADO ROCKIES INDEPENDENCE DAY BASEBALL GAME
Enjoy a day at the game! The Colorado Rockies is Denver's latest team to rank as

accomplishments during the 2007 season, specifically their victory over the Arizona
Diamondbacks for the National League Championship.
Your guests will truly enjoy attending a game at Coors Field as they will experience
the residual excitement and expectation that surrounds the Rockies from their 2007
season. The stadium will pulse with anticipation, so much so that your guests are

RED ROCKS AMPHITHEATRE & COORS BREWERY TOUR
To begin this tour, we'll travel just outside Denver to Red Rocks, the world's only
naturally occurring amphitheatre. 300 million years old, these dramatic sandstone
formations create an absolute acoustical phenomenon. Offering incredible panoramic
views of the city, this amphitheatre is a long-time favorite for both musicians and
concert fans and hosts over 350,000 concert-goers per year! At the base of Red Rocks,
guests will have the option to exit the motorcoach and browse the "Old West" trading
post. From there, they can either walk or ride to the top of Red Rocks to the venue's
underground Visitor Center, where they can walk through an interactive "Who's
Who" of legendary musicians who have played at Red Rocks through the years.
Afterward, guests will be off to Coors Brewery, where America's finest quality
beers have been produced for more than 120 years. Inspired by the springs of the
Clear Creek Valley near Golden, Colorado, Adolph Coors, Sr. founded this business
that not only survived the Depression and Prohibition, but has continued to prosper
and expand through the years. The 1½-hour visit includes a tour through their
unique malting, brewing, and packaging processes and, of course, some beer
sampling. You'll see how the refreshing flavor of Coors tastes even better in the
Rocky Mountains!

ALL-AMERICAN DAY IN COLORADO SPRINGS
Colorado Springs, located just south of Denver, is home to several historic
landmarks. Guests will begin the All-American Tour with a driving tour of the
Garden of the Gods. Once used as sacred grounds for the Uncompadre Indians, this
area offers a true taste of Colorado's colorful history combined with breathtaking
scenery.
The next stop on this unique tour is the Manitou Cliff Dwelling Museum. This
incredible outdoor museum will bring guests back to 1100-1300 AD when the Cliff
Dwelling Indians reached the peak of architectural perfection and produced the
finest pottery ever made. Along with the incredible architecture, the museum holds
a large collection of Anasazi Indian artifacts acquired throughout the Southwest.
Guests will catch the Olympic spirit by visiting the US Olympic Training Center.
Upon arrival, the group will be greeted with an inspiring video of some of the
greatest Olympic moment highlights. A resident athlete and tour guide will then
guide the group through the Sports Center, the Indoor Shooting Grounds, and the
lap pool area.
The United States Air Force Academy, which nestles against the Rampart Range of
the Rocky Mountains, will be the final stop. This 18,000-acre property houses over
4,000 cadets. During the Academy tour, you will see the Cadet Fieldhouse, the
famous Chapel, Visitor Center, Falcon Stadium, and an authentic B-52 that was
used on a tour in Vietnam. It is the most visited of all man-made attractions in the
state of Colorado — a fitting way to end an All-American Day.
