The Denver Climbers' Coalition will be holding its first annual election and annual membership meeting on Wednesday March 18th, 2009 at 7:00 PM at First Unitarian Society of Denver, 1400 Lafayette in Denver. At this meeting, we will be electing 5 board members plus offices of President, Vice-President, Secretery, and Treasurer. In addition, we will be setting priorities for action for the upcoming year and forming action committees for these priorities.

If you would like to run for office or nominate another member, you must submit your nomination via email to denverclimbers@yahoo.com by Friday, March 13th 2009. The only requirement for running is that a candidate has filled out a membership form , is over the age of 18, and is on our membership roster.

All candidates will have the opportunity to introduce themselves at the meeting, and all voting will take place at the meeting. Members must be present to cast their vote.

We are also in the process of updating our membership list. Please report any changes to your contact information. If you no longer want to be a member, please let me know and I will remove your name. Otherwise, I will assume you still want to be on the list and no action is required.

John - thanks for getting this posted!

Hi guys! We are a young but quickly growing local climbing organization affiliated with the Access Fund working on access issues in the area. We are interested in all the places people who live in and around Denver would go climb for a day, especially areas that don't have other representation.

So far we have sponsered a trail day at North Table and we have been opening up negotiations with Denver Mountain Parks to explore climbing possibilities on their properties. (Right now climbing is off limits in all DMP.) We would love to get some other projects going also, especially if we have members passionate about particular issues.

PM me or email me at denverclimbers@yahoo.com and I will get you signed up and on our email list!

Gee Malcolm, like the sun revolves around Boulder!

I think these guys are mostly concerned about certain Denver Mountain Parks that are currently off limits to climbing. Also of concern to them are certain South Platte access issues.
