Board Members: the Vision and Mission of the BCC in Action

The BCC Board of Directors is seeking a few 2025 Board class members. As a Board member, you help create the vision of the BCC as it moves forward and ensure its vision is carried out.  Board members are also the fiduciary (financial) stewards of the organization.

The BCC is a nonprofit organization dedicated to having the best cared-for climbing resources from Staunton State Park to Rocky Mountain National Park; we steward a 500-square-mile area and are one of the largest regional climbing organizations in the country. Our five programs are Trails, Anchor Replacement, Human Waste Mitigation, Eagle and Raptor Monitoring, and Advocacy.

Our impact is huge. Since we started in 2010 we have had over 50,000 volunteer hours ($1,674,500.00 in 2025 dollars), completed nearly $3 million in trail work, and will replace our 5,000 bolt this spring!

Board members are expected to attend 4:6 Board Meetings, but we aim for 100% attendance. In addition, we ask them to aim to attend most BCC major events: Soirée, Backyard Climbing Festival, Dirtbag Home Movie Night, and others. BCC Board members also serve on at least one committee.

Committees include: executive (Board leadership and executive director management), finance (financial oversight and budgeting), governance (governing the board), social (finding time for us all to connect), advocacy (keeping tabs on when and where to weigh in on climbing matters), and fundraising (helping plan Soirée and raise funds). Other ad hoc committees exist as needed. 

Serving on the BCC Board is rewarding and important work.
