The JW Marriott Cherry Creek, the location for the Sunday, September 10 Board / TC / UC meeting and dinner, is about a 20 minute drive (see map below) from the Renaissance Denver Stapleton, the PTG venue. As many people will likely be staying in or around the PTG venue, we recommend you take a ride share car between venues.
