This was a jam packed weekend at the Boulder County Fairgrounds. Between the Boulder County Fair as…read morewell as the Craft Spirits Festival there were all ages wandering around. I was pleased that the venue was not difficult to find and that for once the GPS knew where to bring me. The parking situation was a bit interesting (multiple lots, some labeled "board members") and surprisingly no attendees to show the way. The Fairgrounds itself included multiple buildings as well as a wide open feel for vendors and attendees. Each building I entered contained an easily findable set of restrooms which I thought was stellar! The Fairgrounds were neat and clean despite all the traffic and food sales which made me very happy. I don't recall seeing all that many trashcans but this didn't appear to be a problem. Will definitely return for upcoming events.

My wife and I were in Colorado to see Rocky Mountain National Park. As we did our own travel…read moreplanning, we opted for a hotel within driving distance of the park. I settled on Longmont and found this Holiday Inn Express for a decent price. First the bad news: when anyone closes the door or walks across the carpet anywhere near your room, you hear it or feel it. But that's the worst of it. That's why I gave it four stars and not five. This is a terrific hotel. The breakfast offers many choices, from oatmeal to scrambled eggs and sausage to an automatic pancake maker. The gym is small but offers dumbbells, an adjustable weight bench, and various cycles and treadmills. The pool is small but indoors. The room is spacious and well-designed. The housekeeping staff isn't always as reliable as you want (for instance, the shampoo bottle ran out and wasn't refilled), but the front desk is responsive and helpful. (i sought help from the desk twice, and each time the desk clerk themselves came and delivered within minutes.) It served as an excellent home base for our trip. Just down the street is Sprouts, where we went to stock the fridge with water and fruit. There are also restaurants within walking distance of the hotel. If I could, I would rate this hotel 4.5.

The owners are real people running a locally owned business, and offering GREAT service to their customers! They don't have all of the bells and whistles of the larger and more corporate trampoline/ninja parks, but the experience was just as enjoyable for our family! I have three boys and a girl aged 16 to 6. They are in gymnastics and are self-taught in Ninja obstacles. At first, the staff hesitated to allow my kids to try the advanced ninja obstacles (because it was our first time there), but communicated that clearly and considerately, while eventually giving them a chance to "prove themselves" under proper supervision. I appreciated their genuine concern for my kids' safety, while still being willing to cater to their desire to challenge themselves. My boys also appreciated the staff catering to them so they could enjoy the experience even more! Warrior Playground appears on the Colorado "Get Out Pass" which gets you a free session at the playground during Open Gym time on certain days.

They don't make you use their vendors- you are allowed to do what YOU want. They provide a layout of the inside to help you with the table set up. They have a bar that's included- you just bring the drinks and the decor and your vision. My wedding day was so perfect and magical and I am soooo grateful I chose the D Barn.

Of course, we started with a wonderful bottle of wine. Then for appetizers, we had the German Nachos. German you say? Well, instead of the usual tortilla chips, they lined the bottom with house made potato chips. Then it was layered with sausage, sauerkraut, tomatoes, beer mustard, onion jam, green onions, and cheddar cheese. What a great taste! We followed that up with Sushi Bites, which was a bit (or make that a bite) on top of crispy rice rounds, guacamole, sushi grade poke salmon, pickled ginger, and much more. Great flavor. For the entree, my wife and I shared the Chili Garlic Salmon. As you can tell by the name, the perfectly cooked Scottish Salmon was served over Coconut Jasmine Rice, and grilled Asparagus with Micro Greens. My cousin and wife each had Cod. This came with Miso Sauce, Japanese Wasabi, Mashed Potatoes, Snow Peas, Red Bell Peppers, Arugula, Carrots, and Micro Greens. They couldn't stop raving about it. Our server (did not get her name) was attentive and pleasant.

The garden is open to the public. I love to sit outside on one of the stone benches and listen to the fountain. It's a great place to sit and write a letter, or just' be'. The garden is lovely: statuary with clematis or ivy climbing up it dots the lawn; large trees provide shade, and there are flowering plants everywhere. My relative was married here; my mom used to bring her grandkids here for a photo shoot! The one drawback- it's at a busy intersection, so you do have to be ok with that.

The front range view, the beautiful landscaping, and the indoor rustic reception site were marvelous. From all of the wedding details, we probably received the most compliments on how gorgeous our venue was, so you cannot go wrong. It helped so much to have so many elements included and taken care of- coordinator, tables and chairs, table cloths, napkins, bartender, servers, the arch, and many of the decorations. I didn't even feel the need to have a florist included in the day because of the landscaping and natural elements that were already part of Shupe. That helped a ton! We loved the feeling of being doted on and feeling so special and taken care of. A DEEP heart felt thank you to Shupe and the At Your Service Event Management Team. You make dreams come true!!

Jeanne is very welcoming, making you feel confident in the services of 17th Avenue event center. I hosted our 1st AK bridal show on March 8th at the center. Jeanne was beyond helpful in the planning process, she even was gracious and helped with set up. Brides and grooms loved the venue as it was dressed up as a wedding reception. The center has an open feel with a great dance floor, beautiful bar and perfect room for buffet and catering. We highly recommend 17th Avenue event center to our brides, grooms and our friends. Any kind of party or event will fit perfectly at 17th Avenue event center. And the most important aspect is the customer service! You can't beat it!

Wanted to break the contract when I asked simple simple questions. Such as when could a tasting be set up? He caters to the venue so...it's putting all eggs into one poorly made basket. When I tried to get my deposit back from him once it was decided it wasn't happening...he wouldn't set a time to meet. He wanted a home address to send a check(over two hundred dollars, probably would bounce, who knows if it would get sent this year or on his end he could just say...it got lost in the mail). He wouldn't show respect at all. He didn't treat this as a business but rather as a piggy bank for himself. Getting a hold of him was near impossible for over a month. Literally everything was horrible. The price lures you in. Don't be fooled. It's not worth the back stepping to the beginning of planning. Users beware. He outright said, he doesn't know what charger plates are and he's never heard of food options for guests on invites. Nor does he think people she cater to guests wants. Just get what your craving. He said everyone has a preference. But we shouldn't worry even a little. Such as a vegetarian and meat option both. I can't say enough what a nightmare this has been and until I get a refund back, still is.
