After multiple terms as CVTA president, Neal Falk is passing the torch to Erica Roselius. Many of you have probably met Erica at the events she has organized, including our recent Run the Valley 5K which enjoyed great success with over 60 participants. 

In Erica’s words, “I joined the board several years ago because I love our valley’s trails and CVTA’s mission to connect our communities to the outdoors through those trails. As CVTA president, I am excited to continue to build on our mission by creating more events and opportunities for our region’s residents to experience our many trail systems and connect with each other.”

As a fitness trainer, endurance athlete and outdoor enthusiast, Erica brings a uniquely relevant perspective to our organization’s leadership. Plus, we still have Neal’s guidance as a director at large on our board.

The following was shared by Travel Nevada and could help reinforce the value of outdoor recreation in our state: The University of Nevada Center for Economic Development is currently working with the Nevada Division of Outdoor Recreation on a statewide outdoor recreation economic impact project. As part of this effort, UCED has developed an online survey to collect information and trends regarding engagement in outdoor recreation in Nevada. www.surveymonkey.com/r/2024NVORAIS.
