      <title>Walk and Talk in Nederland with the CWBA Boulder Chapter (21 Aug 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p align="left" style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Lato, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;Please plan to join us on &lt;strong&gt;Friday, August 21, 2026, from 4:00 - 6:00 p.m.&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;with the Colorado Woman's Bar Association for a hike of the &lt;a href="https://bouldercounty.gov/open-space/parks-and-trails/caribou-ranch/" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(33, 137, 225); font-weight: bold; font-family: Lato;"&gt;Caribou Ranch Trail&lt;/a&gt; in Nederland with members of the CWBA Boulder Chapter.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Lato, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px;"&gt;The group will be hiking a loop from the Caribou Ranch Open Space Trailhead: a leisurely 4-mile easy-to-moderate hike with minimal elevation gain. Sorry, no dogs are allowed because this area is a wildlife corridor with moose, elk, and deer frequenting the area.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Lato, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px;"&gt;After meeting in the Parking Lot, the group will begin with hiking the Delonde Trail (1.2 miles) and then hike the Blue Bird Loop Trail (1.8 miles, clockwise)&lt;font color="#212121"&gt;, and ending by going back on the Delonde Trail back to the parking lot.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Lato, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px;"&gt;After the hike, the group will head back to the Caribou Ranch Parking Lot for some post-hike networking, beverages, and snacks at the picnic tables. Feel free to bring a folding chair!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Lato, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px;"&gt;We look forward to seeing you out in nature! &lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#9E0B0F"&gt;This event will be capped at 24 attendees.&lt;/font&gt; Register quickly to secure your spot!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Lato, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#212121"&gt;Further details will be sent out to attendees the week of the August 17th hike, but please contact CWBA Boulder Chapter Rep.

      <title>From Farmland to Solar Farm: A Practitioner’s Guide to Negotiating Renewable Energy Real Estate Transactions (31 Aug 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;Please join us on Monday, August 31 for a Real Estate Section CLE Webinar:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;From Farmland to Solar Farm: A Practitioner’s Guide to Negotiating Renewable Energy Real Estate Transactions&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;This will be presented by&lt;font color="#000000" face="Arial, sans-serif"&gt;&amp;nbsp;Elliot Browning.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 19px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" face="Arial, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;As renewable energy development continues to expand across rural Colorado, attorneys are increasingly called upon to represent landowners in complex, long-term transactions with solar, wind, and energy storage developers. This presentation provides practitioners with a practical framework for negotiating these agreements, informed by the presenter’s experience negotiating such transactions on behalf of renewable energy developers. The session will begin with a high-level overview of the renewable energy development lifecycle from site identification through commercial operation, informed by the technological constraints and economic models that drive project design and developer decision-making. The presenter will then explore the key negotiated terms in option agreements and leases—including option payments, per-acre lease rates, annual escalation, crop damage provisions, decommissioning obligations, and mineral rights issues—with insight into which terms developers treat as negotiable and which are driven by project financing requirements. The presentation will also address related topics like easements, assignment, project financing structures, and lender protections that shape the long-term relationship between landowners and project owners. Attendees will leave with actionable strategies for protecting landowner clients while facilitating mutually beneficial renewable energy transactions&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" face="Arial, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;1 General Credit&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
