About "Zoo Lights" at the Denver Zoo This Year

Denver Zoo will be transformed to a wild winter wonderland as guests wander under the canopy of lights throughout themed regions at this year's Zoo Lights. Families can journey to the North Pole region to visit with Santa, enjoy tasty treats at Ms. Claus' Sweet Shop and take a spin on the carousel. In this region kids can also take Denver Zoo's historic train ride, revamped this year with a special theme. Kids can help spot animals from long ago at the Yesterday's Zoo Train Experience. During the ride they will hear the story of Yesterday's Zoo, a place where now extinct animals roam, while learning why it's important to help today's animals and seeing characters from the book.

Colorado's Governor Hickenlooper Makes Esquire's "Americans of the Year" List

Congratulations to Colorado Governor, John Hickenlooper! Hickenlooper made it to the “Americans of the Year” list in the December edition of Esquire Magazine.
 

John W. Hickenlooper, Facebook

A drought destroyed $100 million of revenue. Wildfires incinerated 238,000 acres of forest. And then seventy people were shot in a movie theater. It's not easy being the governor of Colorado.
[ Esquire ]

 

Hickenlooper told the magazine

“I felt, in some deep way, privileged and blessed to be a part of their lives,” he said to Esquire. “You feel this incredible, intense connection…. I didn’t feel paralyzed. In a funny way, I almost felt released.”

[ Denver Post ]

Congrats, Governor Hickenlooper!
