Expert Posts: 1207 Location: Ponder, TX | I'm trying to schedule a trip to the Pacific NW this August, and wonder if there will be any Mopar events in the Denver area that month? I couldn't find anything with a Google search. Tacoma Mopars Unlimited has their show on the 19th, and the WPC club has their national show the next day in Tacoma, and would love to attend the Southglenn mall show again, if it will fit in. | ||

Location: The Mile High City | Hi, Gary: There are usually several good events in August. A larger event that month is the Colorado MoPar annual show at the Southglenn Mall. You can find several threads on the shows over the years in the RMR section. Those will give you an idea of the dates too. We don't have a 2017 schedule up just yet, but that should be coming soon. Let's make this year the year we finally get to meet up and have a beer! Mike | ||

Expert Posts: 1287 | Lads -- It looks as though the second Perkins Chrysler-Dodge-Jeep all-MoPar show will be held on Saturday, August 19 in Colorado Springs. Also, on Saturday, August 5, there is the First and Main Cruise-In here and possibly the Golden soiree later that same day Joe | ||

Location: The Mile High City | I would like to go to that Perkins event - anything in Colorado Springs is going to be good. Gary, if you are planning no more trips to your beloved Colorado, we must meet up - mandatory! It will be an eye-opener when you come! The Denver area is radically different then it was even 10 years ago. The sheer volume of new construction and new residents is astounding. There is a lot to be appreciated with the new Denver, but some of your old haunts are gone. The Denver skyline is still recognizable (albeit littered with lighted signs), but Downtown Denver is totally different. Gone: Pagliacci's Elitch Gardens Pig & Whistle The Organ Grinder Emil-Lene's The Soda Straw Woolworth's Department Store on Broadway Gaetano's (may as well be - a faint shadow of its former auroa) Caboose Hobbies (that one hurts) The Little Russian Café Bob's Place Gas Station on Colorado Boulevard Griff's Burgers The Gates Rubber Company The White Spot the Aspen Leaf Celebrity Sports Center Gart Brothers Sports (the Castle is still there - old Chrysler dealership) The Denver and May D&F Department Stores Hodel's Drug La Loma the Cooper Cameo Mile High Stadium the Welshire Inn Montgomery Wards on Broadway Tom's Home Cookin' The Organ Grinder the entire towns of Cripple Creek and Central City (gone!) Shakey's Pizza Tosh's Hacienda almost every barber shop you used to love Baby Doe's ...a million others Still There: the Buckhorn Exchange the Fort the Bonnie Brae Tavern the Old Spaghetti Factory Larimer Street (no longer Skid Row) the Daniels and Fisher Tower the Brown Palace and the Ship's Tavern Pete's Kitchen Bastien's the Twin Dragon Denver's wonderful parks and golf courses Lakeside Amusement Park Casa Bonita! South, West, North, and East High Schools the stockyards (the Stock Show is in progress as I type) Union Station (revived) the Denver Turnverein the Saucy Noodle the Mayan Theater (you know how to pronounce it) El Chipoltepec ...and a million more! | ||
