PLAN Jeffco Annual Dinner with the Commissioners

Wild about Nature: Celebrating 42 Years of Open Space

Thursday, 5:30 pm to Midnight

May 8th, 2014

Price: $40

The Vista at Applewood Golf Course

Our speaker will be Ian Billick, PhD, Executive Director of the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory in Crested Butte & Gothic.

Dr. Billick first started attending the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory in 1988 as a student. He conducted his graduate work on ants in Virginia Basin, above Gothic, eventually receiving his PhD from the University of California, San Diego in 1997. He held positions at the University of Houston and Truman State University before becoming the Executive Director of the RMBL in 2000. He lives in Crested Butte South with his wife, Dr. Jennifer Reithel, and his two sons, Cormac and Giles. He mountain bikes and loves skiing with his sons. He is quite interested in the interface between science and policy.

The Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory was founded in 1928, to provide a living laboratory for field and research scientists in the abandoned mining town of Gothic. Since that date, thousands of students and scientists have studied and documented the ecosystems around Gothic, in the process making RMBL an internationally renowned center for scientific research and education.
