This is our final Water in the West Social of the summer! This is a social series in collaboration with FDRD, HC3, BRWG, and FOLBR. This month, Friends of the Lower Blue River will be leading the social.

In the face of climate change, we are all concerned about the scarcity of water. This is especially true for the Blue River Valley. The Blue River is a source of water for 40 million people in the Colorado River System. We invite you to join Friends of the Lower Blue River for an evening exploring the history and development of Colorado's most precious natural resource: our water. How can we preserve this important resource for future generations? How do we deal with the challenges facing us in a changing climate?

FOLBR board member, Scott Hummer, who served 20 years as the first full-time Water Commissioner in the Blue River Basin will be speaking. In addition, FOLBR's Director of Climate Action, Tom Koehler will speak on the impact of climate change in the Lower Blue River Valley. Come join us for the final Water in the West Social of the summer on Wednesday, September 18th at the Thirsty Pika Tap Room in Silverthorne.
