Who Are We?

(Also see our "FAQ" section) The FrontRangers organization serves as an informational clearinghouse for social and recreational activities organized by its individual members. We started out as a handful of gay men known as "The Group" who went biking and ice skating. We decided to make "The Group" official on August 7, 1981.  On December 18, 1989, "The Group" incorporated as a Colorado not-for-profit organization, "The Group of Denver, Inc."  In August, 1996, the membership decided to rename the organization to "The Colorado FrontRangers".

Activities are organized by individual members and information about planned activities are published in a bimonthly newsletter with the contact information.
