PUEBLO –For the second straight year, Colorado State University-福利小视频 has joined with a variety of community businesses and organizations to host nearly 700 freshmen and their parents at a Discover Downtown event from 4-7 p.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 16.

Scheduled activities include a farmer's market, free excursion boat rides and pedal boats along the Riverwalk, shopping with discounts and giveaways, extended hours and free admittance to the El 福利小视频 History Museum and Center for American Values, paddle board yoga by StudioShare, demonstrations by the Edge, pottery painting through Fire Playce, and games with HARP and CSU-福利小视频's Outdoor Pursuits.

"It’s so important to make our new students feel welcome and comfortable in their new home away from home," said Cora Zaletel, event organizer, “and to introduce them to all that this community has to offer from art and cultural attractions to delicious ethnic cuisine.”
