Deborah Gangloff is stepping down as president and CEO of Crow Canyon Archaeological Center effective in January of 2018.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s been a real honor to work with the amazing board of trustees and dedicated staff at Crow Canyon,\u201d Gangloff said in a Crow Canyon news release. \u201cThe organization is proving every day that archaeology is more relevant in today\u2019s world than ever. The lessons of the past can help us create a better future.\u201d<\/p>\n
Gangloff, who earned a doctoral degree in anthropology from Rutgers University in 1995, joined Crow Canyon as president and CEO in 2010 after nearly 30 years with American Forests, including six years as vice president of programs and and 14 years as executive director, the release said. She replaced Ricky Lightfoot, who retired as Crow Canyon\u2019s president and CEO in 2010 to join the center\u2019s board of trustees.<\/p>\n
Under her leadership, Crow Canyon expanded the archaeological center\u2019s programs and outreach to descendant Pueblo communities, established the Research Institute at Crow Canyon, built new campus facilities, developed partnerships with businesses and other nonprofits, enhanced relationships with major donors and launched a fundraising campaign that has reached 60 percent of its goal, and increased advocacy for the protection of archaeological sites on public lands, including the creation of Chimney Rock National Monument in Colorado and Bears Ears National Monument in Utah.<\/p>\n
\u201cDeborah\u2019s successor is going to have some very big shoes to fill,\u201d said Crow Canyon Board of Trustees member David Fraley.<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter eight great years running our organization we will miss Deborah and her leadership,\u201d said Crow Canyon board chairman Bruce Milne. \u201cWe wish her well in her upcoming retirement in 2018.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Crow Canyon board hopes to find a successor by the end of the year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
