Keep Westword Free
We’re $3,500 away from our spring campaign goal!
We’re aiming to raise $20,000 by April 26. Your support ensures Westword can continue watching out for you and our community. No paywall. Always accessible. Daily online and weekly in print.
I don’t know about you, but this is the time of year when I turn into a crab and crawl into a boot and refuse to come out until it’s at least 72 degrees outside daily. I can no longer bear the brown, white and gray landscape or the fierce winds off the mountains — or my ugly wool coat. Ugh.
I’m guessing that people like me (who, on top of apparently suffering from SAD, can’t afford a Caribbean cruise every winter) are precisely the reason that this year’s Mountain Mardi Gras Benefit and Auction for the Limb Preservation Foundation is subtitled A Margaritaville Masquerade and sports a beach theme. Tonight from 6 p.m. to midnight, guests will play volleyball, do the limbo, walk the boardwalk for a costume contest and twist the night away to the music of Frankie and the FlipFlops at the Holiday Inn DIA, 15500 East 40th Avenue, at I-70 and Chambers Road.
This respite is surely worth the $150 admission price; go to www.limbpreservation.org or call 303-217-0998.
Sat., March 1, 6 p.m.-midnight, 2008
