HERE'S WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH THE TIDE AT A MILE HIGH!
Hey Alabama Alumni & Friends!
Clint Priest has formally stepped down as President. We wish he and his wife Lauren well on their new adventure as parents. Clint brought in experience from Tide in Texasand helped our club with getting some bigger club functions in place, and we would like to continue that growth even more.
I will be back in the roll as President, with help from Jordan Wright, who will be VP and Treasurer of the club as we gear back up.
We've already got some ideas to work on but are really eager to hear from you all as well. We'll have some volunteer meetings coming up and would greatly love to meet with folks on continuing the club expansion and adding more folks to the board. As always, the biggest thing we need is for people to come out to events!
I'm going back through a bunch of older emails and will be reaching out to many of you who have contacted us in the past. If you have been considering getting involved more, maybe haven't had time but do now, please don't hesitate to reach out to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. We are the official Denver/Boulder Chapter for the University of Alabama Alumni, but we are also a group for fans and want all to feel welcome to join in contributing to this group, which we would like to be a great organization for the community, for networking, as well as social activities and connection with the University of Alabama.
Please don't forget that we have Watch Parties at two locations tonight for the Men's basketball team game. Come out, make yourself at home, and cheer on the Tide!
ROLL TIDE!
