Chasing Water on March 24
Chasing Water on March 24
Western Colorado Congress is once again hosting the Wild & Scenic Film Festival.
Exciting new location this year is in the Colorado Mesa University Center Ballroom on Saturday, March 24. Doors open 6:00pm, program starts at 7:00 pm.
We’ll feature a handful of engaging films that inspire viewers to join WCC protecting the environment. Our feature film is Chasing Water, with photographer Pete McBride following the Colorado River from its source in the Rockies to the sea. McBride will be interviewed on KAFM Radio on Tuesday, March 13th from 12:30-1:00pm.
High Noon Solar and Bookcliff Vision Center continue as our local sponsors. WCC is also partnering with the Colorado Mesa University [CMU] Outdoor Program, as well as Environmental Networking for Volunteering Students and DMU’s Sustainability Council.
We’re also including our first-ever CMU student environmental video contest, showing the winner that night.
Advance tickets are available for $10 in Grand Junction at Summit Canyon Mountaineering (461 Main St) and Whitewater West (418 South 7th St). Students are $5. To buy tickets online, visit WCC’s website.
After working for our Alliance for 32 years, Brenda retired in 2018 and took a two-year hiatus before rejoining the fold as a board member. She is a treasure trove of little known facts about the organization after managing everything from the membership database to our communications. Her other interests include dabbling in a number of artforms, hiking, botany (her college major), t'ai chi and chi gung, and swing dancing. With roots in western Washington state, she has lived in Montrose with her husband Kevin since 1984.
