Where to Find Collegiate Peaks Chapter of Trout Unlimited Events and Meeting Updates
Updated
The Collegiate Peaks Chapter of Trout Unlimited (collegiatepeakstu.org) posts its events and meeting updates in two main places on its website: a calendar for the complete list of meetings and gatherings, and a Latest updates section that carries board meeting recordings and volunteer calls. If you want to know what's coming up, start with the calendar; if you want to catch up on what already happened, check the latest posts.
The two places to look
| What you want | Where it lives on the site |
|---|---|
| Full schedule of meetings and events | The chapter's calendar |
| Recent board meeting recordings | "Latest updates" posts |
| Volunteer opportunities | "Latest updates" posts (e.g., Vets' Outings) |
| Annual meeting details | "Coming events" section |
Upcoming events
The site's "Coming events" section lists specific gatherings with date, time, and location. One example from the site:
- Annual Elections and Year in Review Meeting — Thursday, Nov 19th, 6:00pm, Poncha Springs Town Hall. It's a potluck (bring a side dish or dessert and serving utensils), BYOB with wine and beer allowed, and brisket plus vegetarian main entrees are provided. Dinner starts at 6pm, followed by short fishing films, recognition of accomplishments, a slide show of the chapter's work over the past year, and voting for the Board of Directors and Officers for 2027.
For anything not shown in that section, the site directs readers to the calendar for a complete list of events, including all meetings.
Meeting recordings and volunteer calls
The "Latest updates" area is where the chapter posts board meeting recordings. Recent entries include:
- June 2026 BoD meeting — recording available via a link or an embedded player
- April 2026 BoD meeting — recording available
- February 2026 BoD meeting — recording available
- Volunteers needed for Vets' Outings — a call for help connected with the Colorado Springs Chapter of Project Healing (Waters)
These posts are the fastest way to catch up if you missed a board meeting or want to see what the chapter is currently asking volunteers to do.
Getting involved beyond the calendar
The chapter describes itself as working in the upper Arkansas River Valley in central Colorado, with over 300 members and volunteers contributing more than 3,000 hours per year. Its activities include habitat restoration, stream access maintenance, public policy advocacy, and conservation work with various agencies. It also runs fly fishing classes, a middle school enrichment program called "Stream Explorers," a women's group called FlyGals, and youth fishing derbies, and provides up to $12,000 annually for scholarships. An education facility, the Ecosystem Learning Center (ELC), is in progress on the banks of the South Arkansas River.
If you want to support the chapter, the site notes two routes: a straight donation processed by PayPal, or City Market Community Rewards, which donates to the chapter when you shop at Kroger stores after signing up.
