Hydration Event  -  Saturday, May 10th to Sunday, May 18th

Every year we hold a Hydration Event where we collect water and sports drinks for the Golden Gate Fire Protection District (GGFPD) volunteers.  This is an important way we can support our men and women of the GGFPD during the most critical fire months of the year.  The collected items are used both during training sessions and  emergency situations. Please bring unexpired water and non-carbonated sports drinks from May 10th to May 18th.  They can be left on the covered patio. Thank you in advance. We are always grateful and humbled by your response to this worthy cause.

Canyon Clean Up Project  -  Sunday, May 18th at 7 AM

Help up keep our Canyon pristine at the annual Canyon Cleanup Day.  We have been assigned the area from Crawford Gulch to just east of Galbraith Open Space for roadside cleanup.  This entails bagging debris along the roadside – you do not have to go down the hillside into Tucker Gulch, but if you see a major problem (such as someone has dumped trash over the edge of the gulch) we will give that information to Jefferson County.  They will send a crew to remove the debris.  Wear closed toe shoes and bring work gloves.  We will provide safety vests and grabbers to help with the pickup. 

Call Terri Costeldia (970 640-7185) for more information or to sign up.

Yoga Classes  -  Wednesdays, from 3 – 4 PM

This activity is open to all. If you haven’t been to a class before, instructors Judy and Susan will provide a class that offers alternatives for all levels.

AA  Meetings  -  Every Tuesday from 7 PM
