Colorado Parks and Wildlife accepting statewide applications for Sportsperson’s Roundtable

Posted

Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) is seeking volunteers for the Sportsperson’s Roundtable to share insights on important wildlife management and recreation issues. 

CPW depends on feedback from hunters and anglers to make the best decisions about managing fish, wildlife and habitat. To discuss issues and gather ideas, CPW convenes a statewide Sportsperson’s Roundtable and holds regional sportsperson meetings. 

The Sportsperson’s Roundtable provides a forum for the hunting, angling and trapping communities to share information on issues related to wildlife recreation and management in Colorado. 

The Sportsperson’s Roundtable is currently accepting applications from sportspeople in the northwest, northeast and southwest regions. CPW aims to maintain a geographically diverse membership on the Roundtable, with representation from around the state. 

Roundtable members serve two-year terms. Responsibilities of members include: 

• Participating in a half- to full-day in-person meeting twice a year and occasional virtual meetings. Travel to in-person meetings is at the member’s expense. 

• Attending regional CPW Sportsperson’s meetings and other meetings with hunters, anglers and trappers in your area. 

• Maintaining strong relationships with fellow sportspeople and staying informed about current events and emerging issues. 

• Identifying topics for discussion at Roundtable meetings, and actively sharing information and ideas with Roundtable members and CPW staff during and between meetings. 

• Providing your contact information on the CPW Roundtable webpage and being available to sportspersons around the state to discuss information pertinent to the Roundtable. 

To apply, fill out the application available online by the deadline of 5 p.m. on Nov. 2.
