Startup Weekend Boulder Education
Oct 6th
Boulder Channel 1 and Jann Scott attended this interesting Startup boot camp this weekend in Boulder. Here is a highlight video of what took place.
“Startup Weekend EDU is a 54-hour incubator where teachers, admins, IT professionals, and entrepreneurs take an idea to make Education better, and rapidly improve upon it throughout the weekend, in order to present a minimally viable product to a panel of judges by Sunday late afternoon. The goal is to make an application that improves or helps Education at any level (K-12 or higher ed). We are pleased to have a panel of prominent business and Education leaders as judges, including CEO & President of Colorado Technology Association, VP Operations for Educause, TechStars, and Charter School Growth Fund. Our mentors draw from Boulder and Denver, all of them from successful IT teams, businesses and education sectors. Early bird registration is $75 until Sept 15, or when tickets are gone! If you are looking to hone your education or entrepreneurship skills, be mentored by amazing people, and have a blast doing it, Startup Weekend EDU is for you!”

Public hearing scheduled for Climate Change Preparedness Plan
Oct 6th
Final draft to be discussed Oct. 16
Boulder County, Colo. – The Boulder County Commissioners will hold a public hearing on the Climate Change Preparedness Plan developed earlier this year for the county in partnership with the City of Boulder.
When: Tuesday, Oct. 16 at 9 a.m.
Where: Boulder County Courthouse, third floor, 1325 Pearl St., Boulder
The draft plan was released for public comment in January and February and has since been revised in response to those comments and offered to the City of Boulder for review.
“This plan is an important step toward integrating our existing public health, emergency management and resource management plans in the context of the changing climate,” said Boulder County Sustainability Planner Lisa Friend. “Thanks to this process, we’ve identified where gaps might be in our planning – whether in disaster recovery, water resource management or educating vulnerable populations about extreme heat – and we’ve already begun to close them.”
The plan is available for review on the county’s Climate Change Preparedness Plan webpage (visit www.BoulderCounty.org and search “climate change plan”). For additional information, contact Lisa Friend at 303-441-3522 or lfriend@bouldercounty.org.
