Does Boulder need to get out more?

How to get more Boulderites involved?

At last week’s storytelling event for Community Heart & Soul, Boulder historian Ellen Rae Thiel shared a fear that would echo through the evening: Boulder as a bedroom community.

“Hopefully, it doesn’t just become a place [where] you get a job somewhere else, and you don’t put your kids in school here, and you don’t come to any organizations and all of that,” she said. “I hope that it continues to be a good place to raise a family.”
