April 27: Community Summit on the Future of the Crystal River
5:00 pm at the Marble Firehouse (300 W Park St, Marble, CO)
The Wild & Scenic Feasibility Collaborative is hosting a community summit to hear from all interested stakeholders about their values related to the Crystal River and what they envision for its future. Additionally, the Collaborative seeks to assemble a steering committee, representing diverse perspectives on the Crystal River, to help guide our efforts.
If you would like to attend the community summit and/or become a member of the dedicated steering committee, please fill out their interest form.
You can learn more about the Wild & Scenic Feasibility Collaborative here.
The April 2023 Issue of the Crystal Valley Echo (available in newsstands throughout Carbondale and the Crystal River Valley), also has a press release about the community summit, several Letters to the Editor in support of Wild and Scenic designation, and a recap of the March 2 Marble Town of Trustees meeting where they discussed potential Wild & Scenic designation.
Show your support for Wild & Scenic designation!
WW is a founding member of the Coalition to Keep the Crystal River Wild & Scenic, which seeks Wild and Scenic designation for the Crystal River. This federal designation would keep the river as it is today: free-flowing and free of dams. With an ongoing drought and climate change impacts escalating, demand for the Crystal’s water will only increase. We encourage you to attend the April 27 Summit!
