High Country Speaker Series
Each winter Gore Range Natural Science School partners with the Eagle Valley Library District to sponsor the High Country Speaker Series held the second Tuesday of each month, January through March. Our goal is to bring in speakers whose work sheds light on the unique nature of the western landscape. Speakers include writers, artists, scientists, policy experts, and others whose research, writing, art or other relevant contributions have made an indelible mark on our relationship with and understanding of our natural and cultural surroundings. Former speakers include Craig Childs, Dan Fagre, Ann Zwinger, Linda Hogan and more.
Programs, which are free to attend, begin at 6:30 and finish by 8:00 pm. Space is limited, so advanced registration is suggested. Call the Eagle Valley Library District at 949-6797 or Gore Range Natural Science School at 827-9725 ext. 10 to reserve your space. The Avon Public Library is located at 200 Benchmark Road, near Nottingham Lake and the Avon Recreation Center.
Know Your Valley
Vail’s stunning natural setting has drawn many people to the Vail area, for good. Surrounded by thousands of acres of national forest inhabited by deer, elk, bear and eagle – to name only a precious few species, we take great pride and concern over the health and future integrity of Vail’s natural resources. Gore Range Natural Science School and the Vail Symposium invite you to join these outings dedicated to exploring the intricate nature of our mountain environment. Program descriptions will be posted by early January.
