Pikes Peak Sings, a grassroots project launched by various community individuals and organizations and as an official Pikes Peak Leadership project, was created to leverage the power and sense of community that exists in Colorado Springs around the song America the Beautiful. Members of the community are invited to gather at the Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum Monday morning to help sing this iconic song.

Filming will take place on Monday, June 18th at 8am on the west side of the building located at 215 South Tejon Street.

This nationally recognized song was penned after Katharine Lee Bates’ visit to the summit of Pikes Peak –America’s Mountain. The words paint a powerful picture of Colorado Springs and the nation. The finished viral video will be unveiled at the Spirit of the Springs Summer celebration on July 28th at Security Service Field.
