Take A Local Mini-Vacation- Whitney Luckett [ 6/3/2010 - 10:57 ] # 
We hope you're having a great summer. The music that is out there this summer is awesome. Holding true to our mantra, we won't have any concerts this summer, but we are busy planning the Fall/Winter schedule as we speak. I see Zoe coming back this Fall!
There is one concert we wanted to let you know about - a chance to spend an incredible evening at the Chico Basin Ranch in Hanover, CO in the company of it's stewards, Duke and Janet Phillips. They will host Corb Lund and the Hurtin' Albertans next Saturday night, June 12th. We checked out the venue on Monday and think that you'll have a magical evening. Imagine a cottonwood grove, lights strung in the trees, a dance floor in the center, a bar in the corner and a country band presiding. Ana Mai pointed out that one of the cottonwoods rivaled the great tree from the set of Avatar. 250 people sat comfortably under said tree at a recent meeting!
The ranch is about 20 minutes from the PPIR exit off I-25. Because it is so far from town, the Phillips' are opening up the fields around the stage for camping. Marc and I will probably throw in a tent and spend the night.
The $20 at the door will support the educational programs at Chico Basin Ranch. We would suggest bringing along a picnic dinner, chairs, beverages, and bug spray. Come on down to the ranch and take a mini-vacation. I swear that time stops when you're out there...
Concert: Corb Lund & The Hurtin' Albertans
When: Saturday, June 12, 7:00 PM
Donation @ Door: $20
Where: Chico Basin Ranch, 22500 Peyton Highway South
Colorado Springs, CO 80928
