Metamorphosis is the theme for this years annual "Reflection Garden on Tap" fundraiser. We chose this theme to highlight this significant 10 year mark in our healing process.

"Metamorphosis" It is a tribute to our post traumatic growth and the striking alterations in character and circumstance that those affected by tragedy experience.

The Hero's Journey relates to any person who faces a challenge, encounters struggles to overcome it, and returns home a Hero. We hope this 5K is a transformative experience as you run/walk together; whether you are a veteran runner or this is your first 5K. We chose to start the run across from the theater and end in the 7/20 Memorial in the Reflection Garden as your return home/finish line to honor the journey from tragedy to hope. It is the perfect place for each of us to honor and celebrate our collective accomplishment as well as our heroes from the 7-20-12 event. All proceeds will go towards the Zack Golditch opportunity scholarship. Zack is an Aurora, CO native who, though in the adjacent theater, was in wounded in the 2012 Aurora Theater Shooting. Zack spent parts of two seasons in the NFL before coming back to the Front Range. He now follows the path of those who came to his aid 10 years ago, with his career as a firefighter at South Metro Fire.

Rise Up For Boulder Fundraiser

Visit Resolute Brewery in Centennial on Monday May 17th and Friday June 4th and they will donate 10% of their proceeds to our "Rise Up For Boulder" campaign. We will be paying it forward to Mental Health Partners of Colorado's “TogetherStrong” campaign that will fund a resilient center to foster community healing. We hope to raise enough funds for at least one emotional support dog for their facility because we know first- hand how support dogs are vital to our continued healing journey. You may see our favorite support dog “Felina” there with us as we collect paper cranes to place on wreaths for the Boulder families. If you are unable to join us at Resolute, please consider making an online donation
