CRES 30th Anniversary Celebration
About this Event
Celebrate 30 years of clean energy progress at our anniversary celebration this fall at the beautiful Retreat at Solterra in Lakewood on Sunday, September 27th, from 1-6 PM!
Since 1996, the Colorado Renewable Energy Society (CRES) has provided education, advocacy, and community engagement to accelerate our state's path toward a 100% clean energy future. From that first member meeting through to the recent legislative wins of the 2026 session, we as a community have so much to celebrate!
Enjoy a reunion-style event full of short storytelling, live music from local favorite Redhorn, drinks from Odell's, catering from Hippie Chicks Catering, and plenty of great conversations!
The event will be more casual, with no formal keynote speakers scheduled. Our goal is to reconnect, re-energize, and power ahead toward a 100% renewable energy Colorado.
The theme for this event will be CRES Past, Present, and Future, with a big emphasis on the future. Colorado officially hit 53% renewable electricity in Q1 of this year, which is an incredible milestone by any standard, but also a call to action to step things up!
Past - Celebrate our early days from that first call for members to the big wins with the Lamar Wind Farm and Amendment 36/Colorado's RPS.
Present - Our chapters and Policy Committee have been working hard over the past few years on Speaker Series programming and policy advocacy. Hear about the recent progress made on both!
Future - What comes next? Colorado is a top 10 state for energy production, but it still has a ways to go before it's fully renewable. Let's talk vision, next steps, and explore ways we can work together to build Colorado's renewable energy future.
When: Sunday, September 27th from 1-6 PM
Where: The Retreat at Solterra in Lakewood (15250 W. Evans Ave., Lakewood, CO 80228)
