LOCAL BUSINESSES

🐉 Mysterious, hybrid animals lurk among the flora at Denver Botanic Gardens. Giant and colorful sculptures popped up at the Denver Botanic Gardens for their summer show, “Spirit Guides”.

🍝 Need a Night Off? We all do. So take one and check out Shawn Bergin’s (owner of Bakery Four & Rich Spirit) newest prix-fixe tasting-menu pasta concept called Night Off that will operate out of Bakery Four on Tennyson Street on Thursday and Friday nights.

SPORTS

🤸🏽‍♀️ Lynnzee Brown leaps from DU Champion to Haiti’s first female Olympic gymnast. The star gymnast from the University of Denver, is set to make history as the first female gymnast to represent Haiti at the Paris Olympics. Brown received a universality spot, a position reserved for athletes representing countries that have sent an average of eight or fewer athletes to the past two Olympics. Let’s goooo Lynnzee!

⚾️ Rockies play the Reds tonight. I’d say the best way to start a week is to go to a Rockies game at Coors Field. Game begins today at 6:40PM.
