Land Trust loses two key staffers
Riley bound for post in Panama; League goes to the Springs
The San Isabel Land Protection Trust (SILPT) has announced that executive director Brian Riley and land specialist Kevin League are leaving the organization. Both departures are coincidental and will not affect the organization’s significance in the Valley.
[Excerpt]
Riley has been with SILPT for six years. He has accepted the position of Country Director with the United States Peace Corps in Panama and will be moving in July to Panama with his wife Margarita and their three sons, Daniel age 16, Thomas age 14 and Diego age 10. They will be living on the outskirts of Panama City in the old Panama Canal Zone. Riley noted that “Westcliffe has become our home and we will continue to call Westcliffe home in the United States. However, we felt this was an opportunity that we couldn’t pass up.” Margarita has been teaching Spanish and English at Custer County High School and has announced her resignation there. Prior to moving to Westcliffe, Riley worked with the Peace Corps in Ecuador, Bolivia, Nicaragua and Samoa.
During Riley’s tenure with the Land Trust, the organization has completed more than 90 land conservation projects, totaling 30,000 acres of ranchland, wildlife habitat and scenic vistas. He stated “the Land Trust is now recognized around the state as a strong and capable land protection organization. We are in the final stages of national accreditation and I believe this is an excellent time to transition to a new executive director.”
