BATCO is in the process of reviewing our various programs and trying to decide how we can make the strongest possible contribution to efforts to sensibly balance the goals of environmental preservation and outdoor recreation. Now is a good time to step back, think about what we've been doing, and consider ways in which we might be able to increase our effectiveness.
Accordingly, BATCO invites YOU to attend a brainstorming session on May 21. The meeting will start with a "thinking outside the box" session to solicit and discuss innovative ideas for advancing our common objectives. We plan to consider ways of responding more effectively to opportunities for public input provided by the various land management agencies in Boulder County. We will also discuss options for taking the initiative and raising important issues that these agencies would not otherwise consider.
BATCO advocates for environmentally responsible access for ALL user groups -- hikers, mountain bikers, climbers, equestrians, dog walkers, bird watchers, hang gliders, etc. We also take a broad, county-wide approach which includes Forest Service land, Boulder County Parks and Open Space, and the municipal open space programs.
There is strength in numbers. Spread the word! Join BATCO and make our collective voice stronger. Would you like to be a "trail champion"? Step right up and adopt a trail -- one that needs to be built, one that needs someone who won't take no for an answer!
BATCO Membership is now free! And it puts you on our (e)mailing list to receive information about Boulder County land management issues. We hope to see you on May 21. All we ask is that you bring at least one new idea (and maybe a friend or two) for increasing our effectiveness!
Refreshments will be served.
