The ultimate culmination of two years of effort, the NNYA walked up past an optimistic crowd of over 600 professionals, along the illuminated presentation screens, and onto the blue backlit stage of the Mile High Flood District’s Annual Symposium. Through a 20-minute presentation with mentors, Susan Brown and Charlie Pajares, the NNYA presented a call-to-action for youth advocacy to the greater Colorado public works community. They also shared their individual success stories, their journey as teenagers entering the professional world, and their ideas for a future with The Greenway Foundation.
