DENVER Gabe Henning and Michael Milton ran out of space in their home kitchen almost as soon as they started posting photos of their colorful donuts on Instagram.
The Denver couple started Pandemic Donuts during the early days of stay-at-home orders after they lost their jobs in the service industry. What started as an idea to pay rent would turn into a full-time business in a matter of weeks.
Denver7 profiled Henning and Milton back in April but a lot has changed since then. Instead of making donuts out of their home under Colorado s Cottage Foods Act, they now have their very own commercial bakery.
The participants ended up stretching beyond the U.S. borders with participants from Australia, Canada, Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom and beyond just PE teachers. With the sessions included as part of the main convention track, other coaches and program leaders joined in.

Davenport is leading the effort to refresh the curriculum, building on the US Lacrosse principles for athlete development. The curriculum allows PE teachers from grades K-12 to introduce the sport to their students. The curriculum provides age specific units plans, lesson plans, drills, games, educational handouts, cross-curricular activities and more. Aligns with national standards and was developed in partnership with the National Association for Sport and Physical Educati
