Family fun this weekend in Colorado Springs (April 29th - May 1st)
(Colorado Springs, CO) The sun is shining, the birds are singing, and the workweek is almost over. It is time to start planning the weekend, and here are a few family-friendly events in Colorado Springs.
A Day of Family Fun at Monster Jam
The entire family will be on the edge of their seats at Monster Jam as you watch men and women compete from behind the wheels of crowd favorites like Scooby-Doo, the Black Pearl, and the Ice Cream Man. Monster Jam’s more than 50 trucks race and perform stunts, including backflips, wheelies, and donuts (the trick, not the treat). They even compete in a skills event where they have to have two tires in the air simultaneously. No, you’re not imagining it. The arena really is shaking! That’s because each Monster Jam truck weighs six tons and generates 1,500 horsepower.
