About This Event
Join the City of Boulder Rangers virtually or in person for a celebration of Groundhog Day. Meet the famous Flatiron Freddy and find out his prediction. Learn how the stars have something to do with this day and why a real groundhog would never see his shadow in Colorado. Freddy has historically appeared in many amazing ways including by canoe, fire engine, bobsled, skis, zip lines as well as through magical stumps and holes. Set your alarm now! This is something you won't want to miss. This program will be both in person at the Chautauqua Ranger Cottage, and available virtually through a livestream. Please register. A livestream link will be sent to those who sign up. If you show up in person, come early, for free breakfast treats and beverages, and dress according to the weather. This event is offered both in person and through a virtual livestream. Want to see it in person? Meet at the Chautauqua Trailhead next to the Chautauqua Ranger Cottage off Baseline Road. Want to see the livestream? A livestream link will be sent to all who sign up. If you plan to see Flatiron Freddy in person, please arrive early as there may be limited parking.
