A few changes to registration… we

decided to save some trees and

money this year by not printing the

the registration insert to only 6

pages and request that you access

the convention website to print

out the additional registration

forms that apply to your needs at

We and our committees are

volunteering many hours to make

this 37th annual conference the

best ever! We are excited to host

you this summer, so please join us!

Lodging

Over the years the number of registration forms being mailed to you with your Stereo World magazine has grown to 15 pages! This equates to more than 21,000 pieces of paper, many of which go unused and are discarded. In an effort to save trees and money, we have condensed the number of forms being mailed to everyone down to this 6-page brochure.

With the wide-spread availability of the Internet, we are hoping that people who need to register for additional activities such as Stereo Theatre, Program Advertisers, Art Gallery or Stereo Card Exhibitors can print the forms directly from the convention website at www.stereoworld.org/2011. If you don’t have access to the Internet or prefer to complete the additional forms on our paper, simply call us at 970-221-3923 and we will mail the necessary forms to you on an individual basis. Thanks for your understanding and support of this change!

Start the day with a vantage point view of the Eastern Plains of Colorado from the ridge at Horsetooth Reservoir. We will make a

brief stop at the top to enjoy the scenery before heading back down to the breweries.

New Belgium Brewery is home of “Fat Tire” beer and is touted as being the first Belgian-styled brewery in the US. Inspired by

a 1989 mountain bike ride on “fat tires” through several European villages famous for beer, the brewery evolved from a basement

homebrewing kit to a commercial brewery in 1991. The Brewery is also known for its environmental stewardship and is the first

wind-powered brewery in the US. See how it’s all done! To learn more, check out the brewery’s website, www.newbelgium.com.

Lunch in downtown Fort Collins on your own.

Anheuser Busch was founded in 1852 and perfected Budweiser beer in 1876, preserving the recipe for more than 133 years.

Facility, Lager Cellar and Clydesdale Hamlet. You will have the opportunity to sample beer from start to finish and be given a

jugglers, strolling mariachi bands, a pirate cave, magicians, puppet shows, skee-ball machines and more. Then it’s off to historic

Lakeside Amusement Park, a spectacular art deco wonderland celebrating its 103rd year. Here you’ll enjoy a classic roller coaster,

merry-go-round, bumper cars, tilt-o-whirl and rocket jets all aglow in vintage neon. Park entrance fee is included.

Rocky Mountain National Park encompasses 416 square miles of rock-ribbed wilderness, 150 lakes and 450 miles of streams with

at least 60 mountains that exceed 12,000 feet, topping off at 14,259 feet Longs Peak. This spectacular landscape includes mountain

meadows, subalpine forests and alpine tundra rising from trout-filled streams and glacier carved valleys in addition to the

Continental Divide and the headwaters of the Colorado River. Although the grand peaks comprise the essence of the park, the

delicate alpine flowers, clear lakes, rushing mountain waters and impressive forests appeals to all of the senses. An array of

wildlife, bighorn sheep, ptarmigan, coyote and elk can be found in the park and we may be lucky enough to get some stereo

photos of these animals. The park was designated as a National Park by President Woodrow Wilson in 1915 and hosts more than

3 million visitors per year. Over 1/4 of the park resides above the treeline with elevations ranging from 8,000ft to 14,259ft. You

will have the opportunity to engage in easy or strenuous hiking, time at the visitor’s center to learn about the amazing terrain, a

trip up Trail Ridge Road to get a “view from the top,” and some time to wander around the beautiful mountain town of Estes

Park. A box lunch is included and a backpack and sunscreen are recommended.

Cost $60
