Panelists speak during an event at Gemini Beer Company in Grand Junction, Colo., marking the 109th anniversary of the National Park Service and highlighting challenges facing the parks.

This week’s Regional Roundup from Rocky Mountain Community Radio includes a story on how the National Park Service is marking its 109th anniversary, and parks advocates are using the milestone to call for more support at a time of budget cuts and staffing shortages. In Boulder, residents are working to establish a new sister city relationship with a community in Ukraine. We’ll also hear about efforts to reduce wildlife–vehicle collisions across the West, and wrap up with a conversation about the latest Bureau of Reclamation report on the Colorado River.
