Free Kids Activities at Western Street Breakfast Event
The annual Western Street Breakfast is coming up on Wednesday, June 20th, and they’ll be serving up a breakfast of pancakes, eggs, and beverage (coffee/juice/milk) for $5, and kids five and under eat free. They’ll also have a variety of free activities for kids at the event, such as a a costume contest, petting zoo, roping the hay bale, caricature drawing, gunslinger, and trick roper! I did clarify and a breakfast purchase is not required to participate in the activities.
Free Jazz Concerts from Pikes Peak Jazz & Swing Society
The Pikes Peak Jazz and Swing Society will be presenting a number of free concerts this summer in locations such as Bear Creek Regional Park and Fountain Creek Regional Park! Check out their full schedule of concerts on their website.
Free Admission for Moms, Dads to The North Pole
The North Pole will be offering free admission to dads and then to moms on two Sundays this month: on June 17th (Father’s Day), dads get in free and then on June 24th, moms get in free! (I think this is a belated Mother’s Day gift, as they weren’t open until after Mother’s Day this year.)
If you are looking for more North Pole discounts, I know they also just published a coupon in one of those advertisement magazines, and there’s also a coupon for $3 off admission on their website, though you may not necessarily be able to combine these offers.
