Thought I'd share this for those of you around the Denver area! (If you don't know where this is - you can always PM me, and I'll try to give you directions!)
The celebration is taking place at the Aurora WIC office. The WIC office is located on the North side of Iliff between Chambers and Buckley. (closer to Chambers) It is in the same shopping center and just across the alley way from The Goodwill.
