Colorado Springs' Great Outdoors: Links to Quality of Life and Economic Vitality Feedback


The Heritage Series celebrates and raises awareness of the natural assets of the Pikes Peak Region by hosting discussions, forums and other events to encourage collaboration among champions of our natural outdoor assets.

The Links to Quality of Life and Economic Vitality Symposium on October 19th was one such event, hosted in conjunction with Colorado Springs Chamber and EDC, and the Colorado Springs Convention and Visitors Bureau. This event focused on the outdoor recreation and natural resources of the Pikes Peak Region as well as current opportunities and challenges related to leveraging these assets to enhance our quality of life. Panelists from different economic sectors gathered to discuss how their industry is currently highlighting the outdoors and Colorado Springs’ unique quality of life to attract employees to work, play and stay in the Pikes Peak Region.
