In April 2017, Kate accepted the position of Manager of the GoWild Northeast Metro Coalition, which received a $2.7M, three-year grant from Great Outdoors Colorado. The coalition of twelve organization consists of one federal, one state, and three municipal governments, and seven nonprofits organization. The grant will be managed by the Sand Creek Regional Greenway Partnership, so Kate will be around to assist with the transition and to help out with volunteer events.
“I have been so lucky to work with great SCRGP board of directors members and city partners – plus all the volunteers and donors who love the Sand Creek Regional Greenway as much as I do.! We have raised over $15M to buy park land, build trails, and restore native habitat over the last 13 years. The Greenway needs investments of nearly $5M more to complete the vision of the SCRG Master Plan to become the Greenway we all want.”
