The Colorado Association of Stormwater and Floodplain Managers' (CASFM) initial organizational meeting was held on July 27, 1989 at the Colorado Water Conservation Board offices in Denver Colorado. Ideas exchanged included:  promoting public awareness, promoting professional status, legislative activities, hosting workshops, and hosting the 1991 ASFPM Annual Conference. Bylaws were adopted later that year on October 18, and the State of Colorado issued a Certificate of Incorporation a month later on November 21. The initial elected Board of Directors were:  Dan Bunting, Bill DeGroot, and Bob Kistner.  The First Annual CASFM Conference was held May 17-18, 1990 in Vail.

 CASFM has grown to a membership of over 700 since its formation.  Today, in our efforts to hold to the policy statements above, bi-monthly general meetings are held at different locations, usually in the greater Denver area; workshops and training classes are held several times each year; field trips occur as projects dictate; and an Annual Conference each fall.
