Boulder Group Leadership
The Boulder Group welcomes new Council members Jeremy Boydston, Eve Mills, and Sam Wasserman. We are also looking for more Council Members to complete the roster, with opportunities for Marketing (to recruit members, and expand partnerships with local outdoor companies and nonproifts), Web Development (based at Squarespace with GUI, not coding), Conservation (grant program coordinator) and more. If you’re interested in joining our ranks, helping plan the next live and in person Boulder Group Annual Dinner (early 2025), or anything else, please email office@cmcboulder.org Thanks!
To join the growing ranks of trip leaders active with the Boulder Group and leading trips near Boulder, please contact Jill Yarger or Christopher Murphy for more information. Please consider joining us at the Brainard Lake Recreation Area on November 2-3 for the Boulder Group Trip Leadership Weekend. The weekend will include a Scenario Session training/refresher, Brainard Lake Cabin training, a group dinner and overnight at the cabin if you want, and Leader-In-Training (LIT) hikes starting from the Gateway Parking Lot the next morning.
Leadership Training courses are also offered through the Fort Collins and Denver groups.
These courses can be substituted for the Boulder Leadership Seminar provided that you schedule a meeting the the Outings Committee chairperson, to be held afterwards. The purpose of the meeting is to review what was covered in the other group's training, and ensure that the requirements for becoming a Boulder trip leader were met.
Wilderness First Aid and CPR courses are typically be offered in the spring and fall, usually accompanied by a CPR Course. Check the state website (cmc.org) for when WFA courses will be held.
For more information, and to signup, please send an email to outings@cmcboulder.org
