AMCIS conference attendees can expect a special high country experience at our outdoor social event themed "A Taste of Colorado." This will be a great time were attendees from all over the world will enjoy fantastic Colorado food, drink, and music surrounded by the beautiful Rocky Mountains! Picture yourself here!

Accommodations

Food

Attendees should come prepared to sample some of the best food Colorado has to offer, like Colorado lamb and beef, rainbow trout, buffalo burgers, rocky mountain oysters, black bean and corn salsa, and Colorado peaches and cantelope! Colorado's crisp mountain air, fresh Rocky Mountain water, and 375 days of sunshine a year give its food a taste all its own! So get ready for a Colorado culinary experience!

Drink

At high-altitude it's important to stay hydrated. We are going to do our best to help you out with this. Colorado is famous for its Rocky Mountain water and is the home of Coors beer, some terrific wine, and .... clear, cold, water! Sample a Colorado chardonnay, one of our terrific micro-brewed beers, or a cold Coors.

Music

The event wouldn't be complete without some authentic Rocky Mountain High, Colorado's state song! Entertainment for the evening will be provided by Jim Salestrom.
