Articulate City

This Articulate City member is an indie-film lover who just celebrated her five-year wedding anniversary and dreams of one day owning a vineyard in Dundee Hills. Oh, and if you need a recycled magazine to read or a Madonna dance party to attend, Allison Hines is your go-to gal! (read more)

In this month’s Articulate City Member Spotlight: Ultra-prepared doesn’t have to mean uptight, and terrifically detail-oriented need not equate to boring. Articulate City’s Rebecca Morris proves it. She’s the super-friendly go-to gal you want on your side. You know, the pal that always has safety pins and Shout Wipes, and is the least likely to melt down when things heat up. When the going gets tough, Becky puts a smile on her face. And yours. Then whips out a killer homemade appetizer to seal the deal. Love her.

Josh Lehman

In this month’s Articulate City Member Spotlight: a young attorney who excels in everything from martial arts to creating handcrafted furniture for his beautiful wife? Sounds like a character ready made for a John Grisham novel. Luckily Articulate City’s Josh Lehman is way more interesting than fiction.

This edition of Articulate City Member Spotlight focuses on seasoned traveler and frequent flier Kyle Snowdon. Much like George Clooney’s character in Up in the Air, Kyle is far more likely to be in an airport lounge than at an Articulate City event. But he attends when he can and is one of our most loyal supporters.

Amanda Miller

We wanted our very first Articulate City Member Spotlight to focus on our very first Articulate City member, Ms. Amanda Miller! You’ll often hear us refer to her as “the Original Original”, which is completely appropriate; not only was she the first to sign on the dotted line to join us – there’s also just nobody like Amanda!

Here in Articulate City (Population: Fun), we are fully aware that sometimes the art is just the start of the conversation. What we really like about our fabulous Fort Collins social club is, well, the socializing! And we suspect that many of you feel the same way. (read more)

Welcome our first guest blogger! Articulate City member (and Beet Street Executive Director) Ryan Keiffer talks cuisine, community, and why he loves living local.

I love Fort Collins. I was raised here, met my wife in junior high school here, and graduated from Colorado State University. This community supported us as we cultivated and grew a successful business here. And now, after years of giving back as an obsessive volunteer and serving on several non-profit Boards of Directors, I am fortunate enough to dedicate my career to directly impacting this community as the Executive Director of Beet Street.

All my life I have known that Fort Collins has a special uniqueness. What brings people to our city over and over again is a culture that you cannot find anywhere else. It is a culture that is focused on the unique innovations of our citizens and institutions, on the cultivation and application of our educational opportunities as a “college town,” on the culture of hard work and determination that is unique to the western United States, on the incredible recreation opportunities our geography provides to us, and on the surprising and incredible artistic and cultural offerings our community members provide for us. This is what being local in Fort Collins means, and that gives us a true sense of community.

You know, people like you! If you’re new to Articulate City, welcome. We like you already. If you’re a familiar friend, welcome back – we think you’re going to dig the new digs. (read more)
