The Western Bat Working Group would like to welcome you to Fort Collins, Colorado, at the edge of the Great Plains and the Rocky Mountains, where the 2017 Western Bat Working Group Biennial Meeting and Workshop will be hosted. The meeting will be from April 11th to April 14th at the Fort Collins Hilton. Come to Colorado and enjoy the spring season, with access to Rocky Mountain National Park, Pawnee National Grasslands, tons of outdoor activities, vibrant and quaint downtown shopping and restaurants, and ample beer sampling in the heart of the “Napa Valley of Beer”. Our local hosts, Rob Schorr, Laura Ellison, Roger Rodriguez, Toni Piaggio, and Kirk Navo have an exciting program planned. We look forward to toasting you in any of Fort Collins’ 20+ breweries.
