RIVER RALLY 2005

May 20 thru 24, 2005
Keystone, Colorado

The Colorado Rocky Mountains will become the headwaters of America’s fresh water protection efforts for four days in May when the National River Rally convenes at Keystone Resort, 9,400 feet above sea level. Citizen leaders from around the country will come together to celebrate local efforts to protect watersheds. The River Rally is a unique training opportunity for river conservation organizations and community-based watershed partnerships. Volunteers, board members, staff members, new and experienced community-based and tribal leaders all participate to hone their fundraising skills, learn new technical and programmatic skills and develop a renewed sense of purpose and energy. We will inspire each other and share the special skills and experiences we need to protect our communities and our waters from many different threats. Together we will celebrate rivers, teach and learn from each other and explore the power of citizen action. Please come join the River Rally and share your expertise with watershed leaders throughout the country.
