A record-setting 122 BLUE HAWK Members and Partners attended the 2024 BLUE HAWK Winter Summit in Telluride, Colorado, in January. The three-day event featured business meetings, valuable face-to-face networking, and left time for attendees to enjoy skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling, and fly fishing in the beautiful Colorado outdoors.

“The Winter Summit stands out as a unique event for both Members and Partners,” says BLUE HAWK CEO Lance Rantala. “Attendees not only enjoy the laid-back atmosphere but also forge meaningful connections while attending, enhancing their overall experience.” 

In contrast to the co-op’s annual conference, which features a full schedule and attracts nearly 1,000 attendees each year, the Winter Summit prioritizes face-to-face meetings and networking among members and partners. “Attending this event for the first time was an experience that exceeded all my expectations,” shares Greg Cohen, President of The Star Supply Company and member of the BLUE HAWK Board of Directors. “The atmosphere was relaxing and allowed for genuine connections to be made. To anyone considering attending next year — don’t hesitate.”
