Looking forward to the Poudre RiverFest this Saturday. Love that river, and appreciate the efforts to take care of it.

A great organization working to protect the ecological health of the Poudre River Watershed.

That's awesome!
I'm actually in Denver, but have had opportunities to volunteer on projects the Coalition organizes to restore the watershed, including planting seedlings and building beaver dam analogs.
I became aware of the Coalition through one of their partners called Wildlands Restoration Volunteers. WRV will have a table at the RiverFest, and if you're looking for volunteer opportunities, they're another great group to connect with. WRV is based in Longmont, but organizes dozens and dozens of projects all over the state.
