The following blog post is a guest post from 350 Colorado Board Member Bob Parker, who also heads up 350 Central Colorado with his wife (and fellow 350 Colorado Board Member Kay Parker). Thanks to Bob for sharing these reflections from 350 Colorado’s annual “Convergence” – a weekend of strategic planning coupled with reflection and celebration near Salida, Colorado.
