2017 Board Retreat

October 31, 2017 by Michael Kauffmann Leave a Comment

The Bigfoot Trail Alliance Board of Directors met October 20-21, 2017 at Rock Creek Ranch in Del Norte County–right on the trail. We  revisited our 2017 goals, set goals for 2018, and planned for the future. Below is a summary of our discussions.
