Your donation supports the following three important areas:

Wildlife & Conservation

The CLOSCG is dedicated to the preservation and restoration of the native wildlife and plants, and the riparian, montane and subalpine ecosystems that is their habitat. Our aim is to promote healthy, drought resistant forests and understory diversity that supports local wildlife, insects and migrating bird populations.

Trails and Recreation

The CLOSCG supports the maintenance and development of the bridge and trail systems that wind through our community Greenbelts, as well as the creeks and ponds that are vital to our sports fishing community.

Education & CWPP Implementation

We are dedicated to working with the Greenbelt Management Committee and the Crystal Lakes Road & Recreation Association, as well as Elk Ridge, Pearl Creek, Beaver Meadows, the Crystal Lakes Volunteer Fire Department, and other organizations and governing bodies to offer educational opportunities for our community to learn about our wildlife and environmental preservation.

Our Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP) is a crucial step forward in protecting the wildland and community within the Crystal Lakes Fire Protection District, as well as the lives and property of those who live and play here. The CLOSCG is committed to working with other volunteers and organizations to see those recommendations become well-known and fully implemented.

Thank you for your contribution. We appreciate your support and your commitment to the well-being of our forest community!
