DLC Douglas County Geology- Speaker Presentation

Join DLC and local geologist Rik Williams to learn about geology in Douglas County! 

DLC volunteer and retired geologist Rik Williams will lead you through the story of how the incredible beauty of Douglas County and Colorado's Front Range came to be. Plus, be the first to know some of the exciting events that the DLC/DCOS geology team has planned for next year!

We’ll start when our state was no more than sand and mud on the bottom of a shallow sea many, many, many years ago. Then we’ll follow it through the rising and falling of multiple mountain ranges involving some of the world’s biggest volcanoes, incredible floods, earthquakes, and more. We’ll wrap up with what this earth history means to us today as Front Range communities continue to grow.

This presentation is appropriate for all ages. Consider inviting friends and family to learn how the incredible beauty of Douglas County and the Front Range was formed. 

DLC presentations are offered free of charge, but a $10 per person donation is suggested so that we may continue to offer educational outreach events in the community.
