MEET: We’ll meet in the lower parking lot near the restrooms.   

FEE: None 

DESCRIPTION: The Eagle River Preserve is a 72 acre parcel of land, owned by Eagle County and heralded as the community of Edwards’ “Central Park”. From the parking lot, looking west, or to the left as you face the river, there are several small ponds still enough to reflect a loose grouping of trees. From here you can also see the profile of distant mountains. Heading east, or to the right as you face the river, you may discover chamisa still in bloom, a splendid show of fall color and texture from the aspen, oak, shrubs and hillside grasses. Perhaps you will catch a glimpse of an old building in the distance. And of course, to the north there is the river, happily flowing around colorful boulders. This is a favored place to paint by our Central Colorado artists and a wonderful spot to get together with our East, West and Central Colorado friends. Please note: dogs are allowed if they are on a leash.  

RSVP: Please RSVP!!!! If something unexpected comes up we may need to contact you.

Northern Colorado Paint-Out Group

We usually meet up (coffee, or paint-out) on the third Wednesday or Thursday of each month.  We alternate to accommodate members’ needs and schedules as best we can.  At that meeting, we decide when and where the next coffee or paint-out will be.  Then I send a group email to all the NOCO members.  No RSVPS, nothing required.  Sometimes there are 8 of us, sometimes 2.  Very low-key and casual.  If you would like to be on our email list, please contact Karen Spotts at kespotts@gmail.com
