We will be attending 2nd Saturday at CSU Spur. This event is a great opportunity to engage with the community, capture interactions, and inform attendees about the Denver Climate Project: One Effect. We'll be setting up a 10x10 tent booth in a high-traffic area.

Reminders for the team:
Don't stand behind the table waiting for attendees to approach, be active in bringing people over. Also, leave space between each conversation, as audio tends to overlap when groups are too close together.

Event Background:

2nd Saturdays at CSU Spur, presented by Canvas Credit Union, are free and open to the public for lots of family-friendly programming, including:

• Cooking activities in the CSU Spur kitchen.
• Watching veterinarians at work.
• Observing horses assisting with human therapies.
• not to stand behind the table waiting for consumers;
• Playing in the mock kitchen, mock vet clinic, and mock lab.
• Getting your hands dirty in the stream table.
• Exploring the world of virtual reality (ages 9+).
• Strolling through the rooftop greenhouse.
• And more!

Logistics:

• Unloading/loading: You can temporarily park along the street of the building where you are stationed (see the list below). When you are done unloading, to avoid being towed, please move your car to the large lot north of the Vida building and head to your station to set up.  
• What you will bring: Activity materials and/or supplies for at least 600 people. Please make sure to bring any tablecloths or table protective covers to keep our tables as clean as possible. If your activity involves paint, please bring a floor tarp or similar items to keep the area around the table clean as well. Only bring water-based paints that are easy to wash off, and bring cleaning supplies, as needed for your activities. If you are using markers, please let me know so that we can provide you with a protective table cover. Please let us know if you think your activity will have an impact on surrounding groups (moving equipment, music, etc.) and please be aware we do not allow glitter on campus.  
• Lunch: Please plan to pack lunch or snacks that you might want throughout the day and a water bottle. A Spur staff member can let you into a breakroom in your assigned building if you need a refrigerator or microwave. Our onsite café, Little Finch, will open at 9:30 AM. They have a coffee bar, and sell other beverages, light snacks, and lunch options.
