Denver Water asks everyone to reduce their outdoor water use

5/26/2012

0 Comments

 
Here's an important public service message from Denver Water: A dry winter across Colorado has led to low snowpack and mountain streamflows are expected to be well below normal. Denver Water has declared a Stage 1 drought, which is the first response to drought conditions. The goal of this drought declaration is to preserve reservoir storage going into 2013, in case next year’s snowpack is also below normal.
Now, more than ever, customers are asked to use only what they need — especially when watering outdoors. Here are some tips to use less water this summer.

NEW for 2012: The Dragon 5K Run/Walk!

5/23/2012

0 Comments

 
We’re very excited to announce that as part of our committment to celebrating athletic competition and healthy lifestyles, we’re hosting the first-ever Dragon 5K Run/Walk at Sloan’s Lake on Sunday July 29 at 8 am, before the festival!

We want this to be a fun, family event, and commemorate the Year of the Dragon — so participants are welcome to wear dragon-themed costumes, masks and hats (we’ll supply the t-shirts).

Participants will enjoy performers at each mile marker along the course, which will circle Sloan’s Lake as the festival prepares for its second day of culture and competition. The winner will receive a trophy, prize and recognition on the CDBF website. Registration will start at 7 am, and the Run will kick off at 8 am while walkers can begin at 8:15 am.

NEW for 2012: A stage just for bands!

5/23/2012

0 Comments

 
Over the years, the Colorado Dragon Boat Festival has made it a priority to feature the best of the local Asian communities on our performing arts stages. That includes not just music and dance of our traditional cultures, but also the music of the Asian American generation: Rock, folk, fun, R&B, blues, punk and a little bit of jazz.

Award winning singer-songwriter Wendy Woo has been a regular o our Main Stage since the early years, and Dwight Mark wrote the rockin’ CDBF theme song, “Dragon Boat,” back in 2006 after performing his mix of rock, blues and folk the first time at the festival.

Also over the years, it’s become clear that there’s a lot of talented Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders making music in the area. So many that this year, we’ve decided to dedicate an entire stage throughout the weekend to just bands playing various styles.

The Performing Arts Committee screened a couple-dozen submissions to came up with a dynamic proigram that’s sure to add a new dimension to CDBF 2012.
​
Check here for the lineup -- we'll be announcing the Band Stage schedule soon!
