Please mark your calendars for the best event of the year for river and angling enthusiasts – the 2020 Colorado TU River Stewardship Gala, on Thursday, March 5, 2020. This annual gathering at Mile High Station in Denver is a fun evening of food and drink and raising funds for Colorado TU’s conservation work around our beautiful state!

We are excited to announce our 2020 River Stewardship Award winner – Jeff Shoemaker of The Greenway Foundation. As Executive Director of the Greenway Foundation, Mr. Shoemaker has led a true revival of Denver’s urban rivers. From promoting parks and responsible development along greenways, to raising funds for a Chatfield environmental pool to benefit South Platte stream flows, to developing education programs that engage thousands of Denver kids every year, the Greenway Foundation under Shoemaker’s leadership has embodied the concept of river stewardship for an urban community. In addition to our honoree, we will host Hank Patterson, fly fishing guide and entertainer. Hank will join us for the evening and close the evening out with a fun presentation that is not to be missed!

The Colorado TU Gala regularly sells out, so get your tickets early or sponsor a table and bring your friends and business associates. Learn more by visiting this link. We hope to see you on March 5, 2020 as we celebrate Colorado’s rivers and fisheries and honor Jeff Shoemaker as our 2020 River Stewardship Award winner.
