Happy Friday from MWI.
Community events have a way of bringing people together across generations, professions, and perspectives.
Last weekend, MWI Director of Communications & Development Elizabeth Hill participated in the BolderBoulder, an annual Boulder, Colorado tradition that supports local nonprofits, sports teams, and booster clubs while also creating space for community connection and remembrance over Memorial Day weekend.
Another example comes from MWI’s Director of Ombuds and Mediation Services, Josh Hoch, who serves as Development Committee Chair for the North and South Rivers Watershed Association. Josh has been involved with the organization since 2020 and has served on its board for the past four years. As part of their upcoming South Shore Striper Tournament, he’ll be managing the live leaderboard, collecting photos and catch submissions from anglers, and helping share the event experience online in real time. The tournament supports NSRWA’s work to restore fisheries and protect local watersheds while bringing together people who care deeply about conservation and the outdoors.
At MWI, we spend a lot of time helping people navigate difficult situations, improve communication, and strengthen professional relationships. Experiences that bring people together outside of work matter too. They remind us how connection, shared experiences, and community involvement help build trust and understanding.
Whether it’s a road race, a fishing tournament, a youth sports league, or another local tradition, these experiences strengthen communities in ways that extend far beyond the event itself.
We’d love to hear about the events, volunteer efforts, or traditions that help you stay connected to your community.
