Park rangers wear many different hats in order to perform their work of protecting the environment and helping visitors recreate responsibly in nature. Join us as we learn about what a park ranger does by completing different activity stations related to duties like firefighting, wildlife management, and interpretation as we hike along the 1.7-mile Anne U. White trail. Participants can arrive at the trailhead anytime between 9:30-11:30 and complete the hike at their own pace while stopping at the different fun and engaging activity stations along the way. After completing all of the ranger activity stations, participants will receive a prize! This program is especially geared towards children of any age, but all are welcome to attend.

Boulder has been home for over 20 years. I live in the mountains near Walker Ranch, where I also volunteer. Originally from NY, I ran a creative writing school there, but moved here because of my love of nature and mountain air. Learning about the natural world, history, and about healing modalities for people and earth have always been passions. I also write, am a mom, practice yoga and other energy work, and play harmonium. I love sharing info and connecting people with the awe of nature.
Having grown up in Boulder, much of my youth was spent recreating on the many trails and acres of open space that characterize our community. I then lived in Vermont for eight years where I studied Sociology and Parks and Recreation at the University of Vermont, and worked in outdoor recreation, community mental health, and biodynamic farming. Upon returning to Colorado, I've worked in natural resources at the city, county, and federal level, and I'm so happy to be back working at BCPOS again!
