Join us for an important conversation with Tim Emery on the future of hunting and fishing in Colorado. Tim will cover the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation, the role of the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commission, and the critical contributions that anglers make to our state. He’ll also unpack Initiative 98 and the proposed Wildlife and Ecosystem Commission, and give an update on current advocacy efforts happening across Colorado.

Our outdoor traditions are facing real threats—from ballot measures to organized campaigns aimed at ending hunting and fishing altogether. Colorado is in peril, and it’s time to stand up. Come learn what’s at stake and how you can get involved in the fight to protect our rights and conserve Colorado’s wildlife heritage.
