Living in Littleton - Western Welcome Week Time!
Jul 25th, 2008 by Steve Scheer
On Thursday, August 7th, the much looked forward to, annual Littleton Western Welcome Week will begin.
The events continue for 11 days, with Festival Day on Saturday, August 16th. The Festival Day includes a Children's Firefighters Parade, The Grand Parade, and the Arts & Craft Fair throughout the streets of old Littleton.
Festival Day is one of highlights of the week of course but many other events throughout the week are not to be missed as well. This year there are 77 events scheduled. Here are a few. Personally, we are going to try and make it to the Hawkquest event on 8/12. My daughter saw this presentation with a group of friends and loved it, and we will try to check it out as a family this time around.
Bag of Books Sale - begins 8/7 @ 9am
Family Night - Concert in the Park & Fireworks - 8/8 Sterne Park
Colorado Scottish Festival - 8/9 Highlands Heritage Park, Highlands Ranch
Stampede For Open Space - 8/9 - Carson Nature Center
Brad Bradford Rubber Ducky Race- 8/10 - Littles Creek in Sterne Park
Summer Pops Concert - 8/11
Golf Tournament - 8/12 - Arrowhead Golf Club
Hawkquest Night Out - 8/12 - Carson Nature Center
Festival Day - 8/16 - All Day! - Children's Parade - Grand Parade & Craft Fair
As I have said in the past, here are some tips for Festival Day - get there early to find parking not to out, bring sunscreen and for the Grand Parade, you will want to arrive early to secure a shady spot to view the parade, especially if its a hot day.
