CancelMy family moved from the Midwest to Wheatridge in 1962, and then to Boulder in 1965. To say I’ve seen a lot of change in this area is an incredible understatement. This reflection makes me feel a responsibility to honor and care for our little part of this big, beautiful world. When I learned about the BOCO volunteer naturalist program I was selfishly excited to grab an opportunity to learn more about this county that I love, and hopefully pass on information to spark a love of BOCO's nature.
My love for nature started with a backpack trip and climbing Mt. Princeton as a youngster. Upon graduating from Buena Vista High School, I chose Ft. Lewis College and earned a degree in Biology. I brought my passion for nature and its preservation to my sons with backpack trips, and fishing trips. In 1979 I was asked to give a presentation on insects, and birds for my son’s 3rd grade class. Over the years I have greatly expanded my collection and speak whenever asked!
