After the success of Ignite Denver 8 (By the way, we made $300 for SOS Outreach!) we’ve secured the Oriental Theatre for the rest of the year! We’re really happy to keep working with the guys at the Oriental. They’re awesome to work with, and it’s always nice to support local business!
New digs FTW! These dates are locked but could change depending on external factors..
June 21st
September 20th
December 6th
Yup 3 more Ignite Denver’s for your enjoyment.
Stay tuned, we’ll have the videos on our youtube page shortly!
As we worked to figure out when to hold the new Ignite Denver 8 (AKA, Ignite Denver 8.1), something awesome presented itself. We got back in touch with our friends at the Oriental Theatre. Not only were they happy to work with us to bring Ignite Denver 8 to the Oriental, but we’re also booking the dates for the 9,10 and probably 11. So that location and date won’t be an issue.
W00T!
So, if you’ve got a ticket, you’re all set. If you don’t get on it! We came really close to selling out Ignite Denver 7 at the Oriental, and Ignite Denver 8 already has a lot of tickets sold!
Just to make sure we’re on the same page. Ignite Denver is postponed. The weather out there sucks! It’s cold, still snowing and expected to get to about 2 degrees tonight.
Were looking at mid March.
If you bought a ticket, you’re good to go for Ignite Denver 8 Re-Do. If you can’t make the date when we announce it, no worries, complete refund.
If you joined us for Ignite Dnever 6 at the Rack House, you know that as part of Global Ignite Week, we give all proceeds to a local charity.
This year we’ve selected SOS Outreach as the charity we’ll be supporting!
From their about page:
SOS Outreach was founded in 1993 in Colorado’s Vail Valley. As a nonprofit organization, our programs build character and self-esteem in youth through outdoor activities and the SOS curriculum. SOS served 5,190 youth across the nation in 2009-2010 and offered 18,553 total program days.
SOS Outreach began as the “Snowboard Outreach Society,” before expanding to include skiing. This past winter, we began snowshoeing and telemark skiing programs as well. In January, we merged with Meet the Wilderness, which has served a similar demographic with outdoor sports since 1974. The merger means SOS Outreach is now a year-round, perennial organization that – in addition to snow sports – now includes activities like rock climbing, teams courses, hiking and camping.
Your ticket purchase goes towards making sure we’ve got beer (and maybe even some wine), as well as goodies for speed round prizes!
Ignite Denver 8 is on like Voltron! February 8th! If you were around for Ignite Denver 6, it was part of Global Ignite Week, well guess what, It’s Global Ignite Week again!!
Got something you want to share? Something so awesome, you know we all need to know about it? Then submit a spark for Ignite Denver 8! The submission form is here. Submissions close the 17th of January.
Spread the word! Let’s keep the great energy from Ignite Denver 7 going and make 2011 the year Ignite Denver takes off!
