Short Description of Activity
I attended a most celebratory event in Vail to recognize the years’ endeavor in recognizing the Camp Hale historic contributions and the protection of contiguous lands in the newest national monument proclamation that day, Camp Hale-Continental Divide. I was able to connect with Sara Husby; she and I were the two Broads in attendance. I spoke with Sen Bennet and thanked him for all of his work and commitment with public land protection. I was able to also thank Rep Neguse (and tell him I wish he was my representative).
Reflection/Evaluation
YES!!! And now, for the remainder of the CORE Act lands to be recognized!
Extra bonus – to be able and say hello to our new ED once again.
