We encourage you to send at least one, perhaps two, people from your project to this workshop. You will be reimbursed up to $1,200 in travel expenses for one or two attendees from each grant . So save your receipts!

Denver International Airport (DIA)  services the Denver/Boulder area. Please purchase your airline tickets as soon as possible for the best rates.

For transportation from/to DIA, the Boulder Super Shuttle runs every hour and costs $27 each way or $50 roundtrip.

Plan on a $54 per day Boulder, CO, per diem rate for meals and incidentals, excluding meals that are included as part of the workshop. Breakfast and lunch will be provided on Monday, as well as breakfast on Tuesday.

Public transportation in Boulder is clean, safe and easy. Two local bus routes provide frequent (every 10 minutes) transportation from the Hotel Boulderado to campus, as well as to other areas around town for access to a wide variety of restaurants and shopping (see http://www.boulderdowntown.com/dining  for dining options). The SKIP bus travels up and down Broadway with stops near the Hotel Boulderado and campus every ~10 minutes. And the HOP bus makes a loop that links downtown Pearl Street with 29th Street (retail/restaurants), campus, and the Hill (retail/restaurants).

On campus, we'll be meeting at the University Memorial Center (UMC) room 247; see detailed bus instructions, below.

Bus directions from the Hotel Boulderado to the University of Colorado:
From the hotel, walk one block west to the RTD SKIP bus stop near Spruce Street and Broadway (Broadway is equivalent to 12th Street). Wait for the next SKIP bus (going south). Fare is $2 each way; no change is given. Ride the bus about one mile to the stop at Broadway and Euclid Ave. The University Memorial Center is on the northeast corner of Broadway and Euclid Ave.

Return to this website later for additional information on how to request your travel reimbursement. In the meantime, keep your receipts!
