Hello everyone,

exceptional creativity and innovation in the environment category,

Energy Conservation Center.

Thanks
to all of your hard work over the years participating in our
Backcountry Wilderness Host program, we won the award. It
came with a generous $1,000 grant which will be a great help in
meeting some of next year's administrative expense.
Kaiser-Hill has been underwriting this award category for the last
few years, and we are grateful for their community support.
They have been in charge of cleaning up the old Rocky Flats
site.
Anne & I showed off the award at the US Forest Service. They
were all excited for us and will look for a choice spot in the
lobby to show it off.

This is really
your award, so each and every one of you should be proud of your
accomplishments.
Thanks for a great year.
Jeff Charlebois
Note: The NOVA award is
currently on display in the conference room at the Boulder Ranger District Forest
Service office.
