M – March 20: CAT Day
It’s cats! Bring a picture of your cat (if you have one), cat stuffies, cat masks – you know, just, alllllll the cat-themed materials – and let’s hiss together. Dress as a cat, if you wish.

It’s another game day, but different! This time, bring games + puzzles your family has outgrown, didn’t enjoy, or just no longer use. We’ll figure out how to swap them fairly.

Summer Semester, Week 11: August 22 (Tomorrow!)
Monday, August 22 @ 10 o’clock: The Frog Pond, along Clear Creek, Wheat Ridge Okay, just kidding! Despite all efforts, there’s STILL a (dog-killing) algae overgrowth at BCLP.
