The Climb http://the-climb.com Sustainable Transportation for Rural Boulder County Mon, 07 May 2012 17:02:38 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 Meet The Climb! May 8th, 6:30-8 Gold Hill Store http://the-climb.com/featured/483/ http://the-climb.com/featured/483/#comments Mon, 07 May 2012 17:01:32 +0000 climbdriver http://the-climb.com/?p=483 Gold Hill Store 6:30 to 8pm. Light Food and Refreshment Served. 

We want to meet everyone casually, hear concerns, and hopefully find ways to make the Climb better. 

We aren’t going to have a big presentation and we don’t intend on taking wasting your time. We would like to listen to what everyone needs and we want to tell about our inclusion into Via Mobility ( Special Transit )

I hope to see you there!

The Center For ReSource Conservation ( conservationcenter.org) Not only has an immense reclaimed building materials yard, a tool rental library with almost everything imaginable, and energy audits, they also have many programs to conserve water and waste. Be sure to take a look at their Garden In A Box for dry landscapes.

We seriously regret, especially with the pool of drivers potentially available, that a legal driver cannot be found for any of Thursday’s scheduled routes. We will work harder to make sure this type of cancellation does not happen again.

Please share this with any riders you may know without an internet connection.

Thank you!

McGuckins has given a gift card. Atlas Snowshoe company is donating a pair snowshoes given to the person that helps raise the most. GoLite has donated a Canyon Jacket, Green Guru has donated a bag,and  Zeal some great goggles. There is plenty of fun to sign up for and a very good chance to win something!

Speaking of signing up, all local residents can use these coupons codes good for free registration for kids and for a $15 registration fee for adults. Tell everyone you know to come out for a snowshoe workout while the snow is fresh!  I personally think its the best snowshoe loop on the Peak to Peak, with big views through Aspen and Pine.  See you there with coffee and baked goods from Spruce Confections!
