Boulder Flycasters - Trout Unlimited Chapter
CALL TO ACTION: The Boulder Creek Enhancement Project (also known as the Rogers Park Project)
Prove that you care by donating any amount towards the completion of this project in 2008/2009. We have raised about 60% of the $235,000 needed by successfully securing a DOW grant. We need your help to fund the balance. Over 20 years ago the BFC made the Boulder Creek Path happen. It's time to step up again.
Members of the Boulder Creek Enhancement Team unanimously adopted this graphic as a centerpiece for the project. There will be a series of limited edition prints available as well as other merchandise. If you have an interest contact Chad Pettrone.
