Don't know how to get cheap golf for you, cause I work at a golf course, so I already get free golf in the summer.

For concerts Tuesday night vail has free concerts starting sometime in June, and I think there is also bands playing friday afternoons up in the gondola, but I'm not sure if that is still going to be going on this summer.

You going to have a blast in Vail, it's fun but expensive as hell

yea it's my first summer here in vail, just got a new house in east vail with my bro and 2 girls.  currently trying to get a landscaping job or painting job or some sort of outdoor work.   do you skateboard at all?  they put up a sick park at the top of the lionshead parking structure, it guess it's skatelite too...  i have been driving to edwards every day to rip their park, it's really nice and flowy.  anyways yea i hear there are lots of concerts in vail all summer long...

Golf passes at the Vail course are around $900-1000. Locals discount is an amazing 10%! Have fun out here, you can't really beat Vail in the summer (or winter).
