Field Trip

 Field Trips!

Val took a group from Watershed School to see the Boulder BioDiesel CO-Op, where we get our go go juice. 

From Jen Bamesburger, Watershed School Teacher

"Here is Maddy's reflection on the trip:

     The room was dusty, making my eyes water.  There was a small waiting room which clearly stated with it’s cleanliness, “We don’t get many guests.”  A man named Kurt Lange met us in the awkward little room. He had thick framed glasses, making his grey eyes look small and beady, but always wide open. He led us into a much larger, gray room, revealing the true size of the warehouse. Huge vats of a brown liquid crowded the building, a sickly sweet aroma thickly coating the air.

      Kurt Lange pointed out all the toxic things we shouldn’t touch, making me feel a bit uncomfortable being squished inches away from one of the containers.  He explained that when he started his biodiesel company, his idea wasn’t to make money, but to give the world another chance at survival instead of continuing to crash. Kurt’s actually losing money, yet he hopes he will make a deal with the City Of Boulder and earn back the money he’s spent on his project.

      More people should listen to Kurt and others like him. There are still not enough people who see what’s happening. Or do see and don’t care. Don’t want to try. We need to turn to alternative fuel sources if we want our world restored. We’re afraid of new things, and solar, wind, and biodiesel are different from what most of us have been told what’s true in this world. But we need to either face what’s coming to us, or follow the ideas of the future."Kurt Instructs on Biodiesel at the coop

The Climb 2010 Annual Passes

  • Tuesday, 19 January 2010 02:36

The Climb Annual Passes are Available Now – REDUCED RATE!

THE DEAL:
The Climb is offering Annual Passes at very reasonable rates, and, when we raise $7,000, Boulder County Transportation will give us $11,200! It is critical to ACT NOW!

PRICE:
We are asking a suggested $120 donation for each individual annual pass – that’s only $10/month! Current tickets are $3 so this is a HUGE savings. And, with today’s gasoline prices, that $10 is less than 4 gallons of gas – or about two trips to Boulder in a truck or SUV.

You can be one of those 58 people we need to purchase a $120 donation level Annual Pass in order for us to meet our goal and obtain the critical matching funds needed for operational expenses!

  • We are asking for donations of any amount in return for an Annual Pass.
  • Although it may take us longer to reach our $7,000 goal, we will accept donations at lower levels, and suggest a $20 minimum in return for a pass.
  • Donations over $120 are greatly appreciated!

The Climb has a 501(c)(3) charitable non-profit status so donations are tax deductible.

HOW TO PURCHASE/DONATE:
Order now through

  • email via This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ,
  • purchase on The Climb bus,
  • or at the Gold Hill Store.

PayPal is accepted via email and the Gold Hill Store accepts VISA/Mastercard. For those on a tight budget, we offer to spread your donation payment over three months when you make your commitment.

URGENCY!
Boulder County Transportation is offering s $11,200 only if we can raise $7,000. If we raise less money, they will still offer a 60% matching grant, but it will not cover our operational expenses. We need your help to meet our goal!

RIDE THE CLIMB AND SAVE!
The current federal calculation for vehicle mileage (gas, insurance and wear/tear) is $.55/mile. It is 10 miles to the edge of Boulder, which makes a minimum round trip cost you $11.00! Compare that to the cost of riding The Climb and watch your savings grow!

RIDE THE CLIMB AND REDUCE YOUR CARBON FOOTPRINT!
The Climb runs on bio-diesel and veggie oil, reducing its environmental impact. Additionally, when you ride The Climb with others, you are making one less round-trip in your car, truck or SUV which reduces your carbon footprint!

ADDED BONUS

  • By helping meet the goal, you will help us give everyone in the Ward/Gold Hill/Four Mile route an annual pass. 
  • This will promote ridership and help promote a cleaner, healthier environment for all of us.

Happy 2010!!!
