2026 CYO in COS Giving

Colorado Youth Outdoors (CYO) is growing in the Pikes Peak Region—and 2026 is the year we strengthen the foundation for families across Colorado Springs. Our mission is simple and powerful: to build healthy, lasting relationships between youth and their parents through traditional outdoor recreation and intentional connection.

Since launching the Colorado Springs expansion, CYO has opened programming at Venetucci Farms, partnered with local schools and youth organizations, and provided families with access to archery, fly fishing, shotgun sports, outdoor skills, and our proven PACD (Participate–Appreciate–Communicate–Dedicate) relationship model. Every activity is designed to bring families closer together.

Your support helps us:
• Expand family programs and school partnerships at Venetucci Farms.
• Provide safe, mentored access to traditional outdoor recreation for youth ages 10–18.
• Train volunteers and Pro Staff who guide families through meaningful outdoor experiences.
• Build the long-term infrastructure needed for a permanent Colorado Springs campus.

A gift to CYO in the Pikes Peak Region directly fuels relationship-building, mentorship, and outdoor experiences that families cannot find anywhere else. Together, we are creating a place where Colorado Springs families connect—away from screens, distractions, and stress—and rediscover what it means to enjoy time together outdoors.

Thank you for investing in Colorado’s families and the future of CYO in Colorado Springs. Your generosity truly makes the difference.
