Mike Smith
Board Vice-President
Mike grew up in Iowa but after a family vacation to Colorado in his high school years, he realized the mountains had a call he couldn’t ignore. He attended college in the state, spent a 33-year career in the US Air Force flying transport aircraft and in leadership positions at various levels and following retirement, he and his wife Joni relocated to Beulah in 2010. To remain useful and provide a needed service, they both trained and qualified as volunteer EMTs on Beulah Fire/EMS. Mike served 7 years on the Department and could not have asked for a more talented and dedicated group to work shoulder to shoulder with. He now likes working on their acreage, cooking, photography and, with Joni, visiting their two adult children and their spouses in Arvada and outside Madison, WI.
Kathy Moore
Board Secretary
Kathy was born in Vienna, Austria, (Army brat) and mostly raised in Iowa following her father’s 3-year accompanied military tour in Japan. After college, she eventually made her way to Colorado where she met and married her husband Larry. They lived in Woodland Park for 18 years commuting to the Springs for their Telecommunication IT jobs. It was during that time that they stumbled upon Beulah and bought their retirement property in 1997. They built their home in Beulah in 2010 and retired to their quiet mountain home where Larry spends his time with photography, and Kathy putters around the house, reads, and enjoys time spent with her Beulah friends.
