This organization is near and dear to Kurt's heart. Kurt has been a contributing member for 26 years now and is impressed how they work diligently in innovative ways to support environmental projects around the world. Their work is strategic, i.e. serving not only winter and summer habitats for migratory animals but also, migratory routes. They work with local, state and federal governments to amplify their effectiveness.

Tri Lakes Cares supports those in the Monument area who need a helping hand during hard times. This non-profit offers healthy products in their food pantry, financial assistance for rent/utilities, and medical assistance in the form of equipment and counseling. Since retirement, Ev has volunteered weekly at TLC. Her favorite role is working the front desk, giving her the opportunity to greet folks who come in, get to know their families and see the smiles on their faces as they shop.

We absolutely LOVE cycling together! In fact, our honeymoon is a biking tour to Glacier National Park, Waterton and Banff. Our hope is to do a "bike and barge" trip in Europe next spring/summer.

Combining two households means we'll need additional storage ... extra shelving, overhead garage storage. and closet organizers! Thankfully, Kurt can do all the installation required :)
