B Like Breckenridge is more than just a slogan— It is a town-wide effort driven by the Breckenridge Tourism Office and a call to action for visitors and locals to embrace the unique spirit of this historic mountain town. This initiative aims to foster environmental stewardship, sustainable tourism, and a deep connection to the community. We here at Beaver Run have embraced B Like Breck and want to help spread the word.
B-Like Breckenridge is a movement born of the spirit of Breckenridge for those who call it home—whether for a weekend or a lifetime—to live by. It is a cause that connects us to each other, that we can all be a part of. One that reminds us to act with intention. To be thoughtful in how we interact with nature, wildlife and one another. And to do our part daily, however big or small, to preserve and protect our communities, our natural environment, and our world. Read on to learn more about each component the program.
