Volunteer Board Member Openings

High Country Citizens' Alliance (HCCA) has opportunities for volunteers interested in joining its Board of Directors. HCCA is a Crested Butte, Colorado based non-profit conservation organization whose mission is to champion the protection, conservation and preservation of the natural ecosystems within the Upper Gunnison River Basin. HCCA engages in a variety of local and regional conservation issues including the effort to prevent a mine on Mt. Emmons, protecting the area’s public lands, conserving water resources and transitioning to renewable energy sources. We’d like candidates who have interest and experience in some or all of the following areas: non-profit governance and finance, legal expertise, environmental advocacy or science background and volunteer coordination. We seek individuals willing to actively participate in oversight of the organization’s activities and assist with shaping policy and goals. Familiarity with the Gunnison Basin, local residency and year-round availability are desirable. Please contact Gwen Pettit, Board President at gpspiral@crestedbutte.net if you’d like to join us.
