You are invited to join us for Rivers for Resilience—a fun stewardship, education, and community action event to protect and preserve the Animas River.

The activities will start at 9:00 am at the Santa Rita Park Pavilion with a morning river clean up with Broads staff and partners. This will be followed at noon by a brown-bag lunch—provided by Broads—and a lunch talk from the San Juan Citizens Alliance Riverkeeper on the importance and value of intact, protected watersheds, especially in a time of climate change.

Then, from 5:30-9:00 pm at Fort Lewis College, there will be a film screening of The Colorado Problem: The River in the Red, which explores the relationship between climate change and the fate of the Colorado River Basin. The film will be followed by a question-and-answer discussion with local conservation experts who will share how the Durango community can get involved as climate activists.

Rivers for Resilience is free and open to all ages, ability levels, and understanding of climate change and watersheds! REGISTRATION REQUIRED.
