Anglers, hunters invited to virtual Southwest Region Sportspersons meeting July 29

DURANGO, Colo. – Sportspersons from across southwest Colorado are invited to a virtual opportunity to meet with Colorado Parks and Wildlife managers the evening of July 29.

The Southwest Region Sportspersons Caucus will be held virtually from 6 to 8 p.m. July 29. It will be streamed live on CPW’s YouTube channel and Zoom.

The meeting will provide anglers from across the region the chance to meet new CPW Southwest Region Senior Aquatic Biologist Jim White, a longtime biologist in the Durango area. White will give an update on fisheries management and projects across the region and will have the opportunity to discuss his background and take angler questions.

Mia Anstine and Roger Cesario, representatives of the Southwest Region of CPW to the statewide Sportsperson’s Roundtable, have highlighted additional topics to be covered during the meeting and will lead a roundtable discussion of other matters of importance to the sportspersons community.

CPW staff, including Region Manager Cory Chick, will be in attendance to present information regarding the agenda topics, such as the recent Parks and Wildlife Commission decision on Big Game Season Structure for the 2025-29 hunting seasons.

CPW will also put out a call to interested candidates for election as region delegates. Anstine and Cesario’s terms will expire at the winter meeting in 2025, and two new delegates will need to be voted in during the winter 2025 meeting. Information will be provided on how prospective new delegates may apply.
