Around Town

They did just start a chess club, and they do have annual events for different types of classes.

If you're planning on attending CMC at the Vail-Edwards Campus, being the outdoorsy type will be extremely helpful. This goes especially for those who are skiers or snowboarders during the winter months. If you aren't, expect to get a lot of strange looks and people asking why you're even in the area. I get asked that a lot, and I'm really tired of it. During the spring/summer/fall, there is some truly amazing hiking to be done.

The Edwards campus is situated at the heart of the Vail valley. There is an endless list of outside activities all close by. In the winter: skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, etc. ; in the summer: hiking, biking, rock-climbing, rafting, and more! The campus offers many classes oriented around these activities as well, including avalanche safety, introduction to rock-climbing, fly-fishing, and more! The Spring Valley campus is located high on a mountain, with gorgeous views of Mt. Sopris. There are hikes right out of the campus parking lots, an onsite disc golf course, various soccer fields, and a ropes course as well.

Depending upon the campus the individual is planning on attending, there are a myriad of options for entertainment in order to have what is colloquially known as R and R (Rest and Relaxation) from the monotonous routine at work and from the demands of school. If the prospective student is in the Roaring Fork Valley, I would highly recommend the following attractions in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, which are popular among locals: Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park, which lives up to its name by offering fun-packed adventures; the Hot Springs Pool and Lodge, an excellent resort that features the world's largest natural mineral hot springs pool; and the Glenwood Springs Community Center, which offers a plethora of options such as frolicking at the Aquatics Center, working out at the Fitness Center, climbing at the Climbing Wall, or skating with a partner at the Ice Rink.

Skiing, mountain biking, climbing, running, bike riding, etc.

there are a lot of outdoor activities to do here in eagle county.
