Summit County

Green candidate and TV personality Jeffrey Bergeron won a four-year term to the Breckenridge Town Council in April 2004, while Jim Lamb served a four year term on the Breckenridge Town Council as an elected Green from 2000 to 2004.

Green candidate for County Commissioner, District 1, Justin McCarthy did well in November 2002 earning a respectable 37 percent of the votes. Green Party of Summit County’s Co-Chair Tom Castrigno ran a great campaign for County Commissioner, District 2, on the November 2004 ballot.

The chapter was very active on local issues, successfully opposing cyanide open pit mining in 2004 and organizing the successful ballot initiative in 2002 which stopped a golf course from going in on the Frisco Peninsula.

The chapter went inactive in 2010.
