Last month our local newsletters across Boulder, Arvada, Fort Collins, Longmont, and Denver were opened 177,000+ times by locals looking for things to do and places to go.

As we continue to grow, I’m looking to add one or two people to help with partnerships with local businesses.

If you love supporting local businesses and want to help grow these newsletters, just reply to this email and tell me a little about yourself.

Here’s what locals are actually showing up to:

🏓 Pickleball (Easy Entry, Super Social)

• Spots like Pickleball Food Pub and 3rd Shot Pickleball (Wheat Ridge) run open play sessions

• You can show up solo, rotate into games, and meet people fast

• Beginner-friendly and low pressure, which is kind of the whole point
  
  

🚴 Bike-Friendly Arvada Rides

• Casual group rides pop up from spring through fall

• Think themed rides, coffee stops, and 20+ people cruising together

• Great mix of social + active without being overly competitive
  
  

🏃 Monday Night Run Club

• Weekly runs around Arvada with rotating meetup spots

• Usually starts near breweries, which makes the post-run hang easy

• All paces welcome, nobody’s getting left behind
  
  

🥾 Outdoor Groups & Clubs

• The Colorado Mountain Club runs hikes, classes, and trips

• Good option if you want something more structured or want to learn new outdoor skills

• Mix of beginners and experienced folks
  
  

🎯 Social Leagues & Random Fun

• Cornhole leagues, rec sports, and drop-in games around the area

• Some leagues are competitive, others are just there for the vibes

• Worth trying a few to find your people
  

🎲 Board Games & Low-Key Hangouts

• Weekly board game meetups (often at breweries)

• Bring your own or jump into someone else’s game

• Surprisingly easy way to meet people without the pressure of “networking”

💡 Quick Take:

If you’re rebuilding your social circle, this is actually a pretty solid place to do it. Most of these groups are used to people showing up solo, so you won’t be the only one.

Olde Town Arvada is a go-to for strolling, cozy dinners, and dessert stops, while the Arvada Center for the Arts and Humanities adds a culture-forward twist with shows, exhibits, and open-air vibes. If you’re leaning outdoorsy, sunset views and picnic potential at Majestic View Park never miss.
