Membership

Note: For New Members Only - Introductory rate of $17.50. This offer is not available for previously expired or archived members. 

Some members have been experiencing problems upon initiating or renewing membership in our chapter ( #130) in that they are being arbitrarily moved to another chapter without their approval. National TU is working the issue in their computer system. If you experience being listed in another chapter when you prefer to be in our West Denver Chapter (Chapter # 130) please contact Jackie at 303-278-2282 or e-mail jorgedwards@aol.com. You can verify your chapter number on your membership card or other mail your receive from Trout Unlimited. Using your membership number and your name you can also validate the chapter number (#130) online at :  TU Membership Services. While you are there review your mailing and e-mail address.

Email List:

The ability of West Denver Trout Unlimited members to rapidly respond to critical issues concerning fisheries conservation depends upon rapid communication. Hard copy and electronic newsletters can provide critical information, but cannot provide members with immediate information concerning legislative action, meeting dates, or other time-sensitive data vital to an informed and timely response.

The WDTU board has approved the establishment of a “rapid response” email list of WDTU members, designated for the express purpose of providing information to those who may wish to proactively respond to important issues that affect our fisheries. Those who wish to be listed will then be notified by email when an important event is eminent, or when calls and letters to their representatives are needed.

  We will not use anyone’s email address without your express permission, but if you would like to help fisheries conservation by being a member of WDTU’s ‘rapid response” email list, please send your message to Dan Sullivan at the following email address: <WDTU@msn.com>.

The most important thing is to join!  Come help us, in whatever way you might, to do this important work.

Find your State and US Senators/Representative + their contact information: www.vote-smart.org

From that site, you can find out who your legislators are. You will need to enter your zip plus four to call up your district information; if you do not know that number, the website includes a link to the US Post Office website where you can look up your plus four using your address. Both features appear in the upper left hand portion of the vote-smart web page.

These sources will list all of the US senators and Congressmen for a given state:
