On May 18, the University of Denver community is coming together from far and wide to show their Pioneer pride! Our goal is 1,000 donors! For every gift made on One Day for DU, we’ll plant a pinwheel on campus—a colorful, kinetic reminder of your support for DU students.DU Day at the Giants | June 25
Last year, we had over 50 alumni, family, and friends out for a great event that included pre-game dinner and drinks and tickets to the Giants vs the Rockies. Given how quickly the event sold out last year, we've expanded the offering to 100 tickets this year. Once again, we'll be hosting dinner and drinks pre-game on the Virgin America Flight Deck and will have club level tickets. Ticket information for the June 25 event will be coming soon; when you see it, act quickly to make sure you can join what is sure to be another fantastic evening!Jared Casner, '04
