Sierra Club Rally in Vail
June 10, 2019 11:30 am - 12:30 pm
Donovan Park, 1600 S Frontage Rd W, Vail, CO 81657
On Monday, June 10th, the Colorado Sierra Club will be working with partners to hold a small rally in Vail to support Colorado’s public lands prior to Interior Secretary David Bernhardt’s speech before the Western Governors' Association. We're hosting our rally to remind Secretary Bernhardt that it’s his job to work for the people, and that the people (especially Coloradans!) support public lands.
I've included some details below - can you join us for this rally? And, can you help us get out the word by sharing details with your networks, sharing on Facebook, etc?
WHAT: Rally to support public lands during Secretary David Bernhardt’s visit to Vail, CO
WHEN: Plan to gather on Monday, June 10th at 11:30 AM
WHERE TO MEET: Donovan Park, 1600 S Frontage Rd W, Vail, CO 81657. From I-70 take the West Vail exit. At the roundabout, head east on Frontage Road. Donovan Park is just under a mile away, on the right. You'll see a concrete sign that marks Donovan Park. Free parking is available at Donovan Park.
FUN EVENT DETAILS: We'll meet in Donovan Park and head over together for a short rally near the Hotel Talisa. We'll be marching by foot, but will have some shuttle support in case anyone needs it. Our short rally will conclude with a fun event with kayakers floating by in "swamp monster" masks on the Gore Creek. After that, we'll head back to Donovan Park for those who can stick around for pizza, soda and beer.

Best for Colorado Webinar: Tackle the bias in your recruiting process and attract the talent you need!
Best for Colorado Webinar: Tackle the bias in your recruiting process and attract the talent you need!
June 13, 2019 9:00 am - 10:30 am
Register here.
Tackle the bias in your recruiting process and attract the talent you need to succeed!
A Skillful Webinar
Hire better, speed up your time to hire, increase retention, and increase candidate diversity by focusing on skills, not pedigree.
If you are a Best for Colorado participant and you have taken the Best for Colorado assessment (here), this workshop is free for your company! Please contact bestforcolorado@thealliancecenter.org to register.
As a recent article from SHRM notes, the “skills gap fallout lands with HR.”
In order to remain competitive, employers have to innovate fast in order to attract and hire the skilled talent they need. Hiring for pedigree, which rely on assumptions of skill mastery instead of actual skills, cheat you of potentially great talent.
Skills-based practices, on the other hand, help companies hire candidates with exactly what skills and competencies needed to succeed in your positions.
Learn how you can Attract the Talent You Need to Succeed, a workshop developed by Skillful Colorado and hosted by The Alliance Center. In this workshop for HR professionals and others responsible for hiring, you’ll learn how to hire suitable candidates by:
• Focusing your job posting and description on competencies to hire and retain productive candidates
• Broadening your talent pools
• Reducing bias in your hiring process, and
• Developing sourcing and recruiting strategies for your local market
This program is valid for a total of 1.5 PDCs for the SHRM-CP(r) or SHRM-SCP(r).
By registering for this training, you agree to be contacted by The Alliance Center and Skillful.
This workshop is created and managed by Skillful and presented to you by the Best for Colorado program. The Best for Colorado Challenge is a community-led program and awards campaign to inspire, equip, and celebrate businesses that create higher quality jobs, build stronger communities, and preserve a healthier environment through their business operations, products and/or services.
For any questions, please contact abehlouli@thealliancecenter.org.
