Colorado Youth Outdoors

It is dedicated to fostering healthy, lasting relationships between youth, their families, and their communities. Through a combination of traditional outdoor recreation and a proven teaching framework known as PACD Participate, Appreciate, Communicate, Dedicate provides meaningful experiences that go far beyond instruction. Set on 220 acres of natural Colorado landscape, the organization offers hands-on opportunities in archery, fishing, and shooting sports as a platform for relationship building rather than just skill development.

CYO’s approach is driven by a passionate team of instructors and support staff who ensure every interaction is purposeful and relationship-focused. The organization's unique perspective sees outdoor activities as tools to help participants grow closer and communicate more effectively. At the heart of CYO’s work is the belief that shared outdoor experiences, guided by thoughtful mentorship, can transform the way young people and their families connect with the world around them
