[Lorena Medina Luna]

Hi Everyone,

I am passing along information about an opportunity to talk about your
science and your experiences in Boulder with people from the Boulder
community with the Museum of Boulder and Rayback Collective for a new
program called Boulder 101 at Rayback on Tuesday, November 28th at 6pm. If
you are interested in participating in this event, please contact Megan
directly.

Lorena.

Hi Lorena,

I hope this email finds you well. We emailed a few times before NCAR's 50th
Anniversary event this summer. I have (hopefully) a quick question for you,
but first some background:

Before our new Museum opens in 2018, I’m partnering with the Rayback
Collective to pilot a new program called Boulder 101. The premise is simple
- a crash course in all things Boulder, plus a beer or two!The idea for
this program grew out of my personal experience moving back to Boulder a
few years ago and my goals for it are:

To connect newer Boulder residents to the City’s unique history and
To build relationships between residents (new arrivals + old-timers
especially) using topics of mutual interest - like cycling or prairie dogs
or flooding.

We’ll be holding our first event at Rayback on Tuesday, November 28th at
6pm and I’m looking for a few speakers. I was wondering if you might now of
someone who could speak about flood mitigation in Boulder (I asked Matt
Kelsch already, but he is busy that week). Or is there anyone at NCAR
(you?!) who could talk about anything related to the theme The Great
Outdoors?

The details are below:

Here’s what I’d need from the speaker:
You give a no-longer-than 5 minute presentation that is funny and engaging
on Nov. 28th. It can involve a slide deck or other multimedia if you wish.
You set aside an hour or so for us to meet in person and walk through the
event and your presentation ahead of time.
You help us get the word out about the event - sharing the FB event,
emailing your friends, etc.

Here’s what I’m offering in return:
I’ll set up a great event where you’ll get to share what you are passionate
about with a diverse group of Boulder residents. I can guarantee you’ll
connect with new folks and build your network.
I will hype you - online and IRL.
I’ll use your feedback to develop this program.

Thanks in advance with your help -- I'd appreciate any guidance you can
give me!

Best,


Megan Moriarty
