By Kerrick van Asselt, chair of the Camp Colorado Board
Camp Colorado turns 75! Seventy-five impactful summers of campfires, late-night conversations and worship, and young people going home different than they arrived. Seventy-five years of volunteers giving their weekends, skills, and hearts so that something special can happen in the mountains.
All year long, we’ll be celebrating everything God has already done through this incredible place and all of the transformational adventures yet to come.
Want to get involved? Here are some ways to join the fun:
Join Camp Colorado’s 75 for 75 Giving Campaign
Our goal is to find 75 people who will commit to donating $7.50 or more to camp each month. A recurring gift of any amount helps us plan, prepare, and provide for campers and renters year after year, and it connects you to Camp Colorado in an ongoing and impactful way.
Camp Colorado is a special place. If it has touched your life in a meaningful way, this is a great way to help ensure that future generations have the opportunity to make their own memories and meet God in the mountains. Go to https://campaigns.tithely.com/camp-colorado/75th-anniversary
Camp Colorado Reunion Weekend and Family Camp
Calling all families and Camp Colorado alumni! If you’ve ever called this place home as a camper, a counselor, or a volunteer, we want you back on the mountain.
Join us June 25-28 for a relaxing weekend in the beautiful Rocky Mountains and the chance to return, reconnect, and make new memories with the people and place that shaped us all. In collaboration with the Western Plains District’s Family Camp, expect a weekend full of laughter, joy, community, and peace. We’ll also be celebrating Camp Colorado’s 75th Anniversary!
Cost is $50 per family to help cover food. Email Ann Stover at stoverann@yahoo.com to register. Registration is due by June 15.
