Men and women perform an exercise demonstration at the athletic field in Broadway Park, West 6th (Sixth) Avenue and Broadway in Denver, Colorado. A man stands on a wooden elevated platform and oversees the athletes. The women, in bloomers, hold Indian clubs, and march with men in suits, ties and cowboy hats who carry exercise sticks. Men and women stand near the field or sit on a fence or on bleachers. Painted signs read: "Dr. Bicycles Athletic Goods, fully guaranteed" "Earle, a good throw throws it right" and "Attention batsmen, hit this sign and get 100 US 5 [cents] Ci[gars]."
