GOV RITTER'S NEW 2009 BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS BOOK NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE


 
The new 2009 Colorado Boards and Commissions booklet is now available online, describing opportunities for Coloradans to serve on nearly 300 panels that oversee issues ranging from health care to air quality and transportation to the arts.
 
Gov. Ritter will have an opportunity to appoint thousands of Coloradans to the many boards and commissions that will help determine Colorado's future.
 
"We value citizen input, and these boards are an excellent way to become involved in helping Colorado continue its successes and overcome its challenges and obstacles," said Gov. Ritter.  "I encourage Coloradans apply for boards and commissions positions and make a difference."
