JCOS Open House: Improving Visitor Experiences at Apex

Jefferson County Open Space (JCOS) managers recently contacted COMBA to inform us they are beginning a public input process to consider opportunities and methods to improve visitor experiences at Apex Park. Their goal is to increase the safety of park users, and provide more positive experiences for visitors.

Open Houses: Two open Houses will be held in June at the Open Space Ponderosa Meeting Room located at 700 Jefferson County Parkway in Golden. A large turnout from mountain bikers will help ensure our standing in these important discussions! Mark your calendars and attend if you can:

• Thursday, June 18, 2009 from 6:30 - 8:00 p.m; Saturday,
• June 20, 2009 from 9:30 - 11:00 a.m.

If you haven't completed the survey, please do so at: http://dev.comba.org/apex_survey.html and then come to one of the Open House meetings.

In my honest opinion, mountain biker imput is vital to make sure that our voices are heard. Other user groups are VERY vocal, but we tend to think that our voice doesn't matter for some odd reason. Well, chicas, our voice DOES matter!!! Bring a mountain biking friend. Let's make a stand (positive, not in anger) and let JCOS know how we feel!

If anyone else is going, please let me know and we can meet up! :)
