Colorado Youth Outdoors brings families together – outside. With programs that introduce parents and their kids to traditional outdoor experiences and activities that can be shared for a lifetime, we are building healthy relationships within families and with our natural resources.
CYO offers an experiential introduction to the following activities:
- Trap Shooting
- Fly Fishing
- Fly Tying
- Spin Casting
- Archery
CYO programs are offered every Wednesday evening in the Fall and Spring during 12 week sessions. The majority of programming takes place outdoors at either a Regional Educational Facility or alternative sites. The remainder of the program is at a centrally located classroom facility.
Once participants have completed the 12 week program they are eligible to sign up for any of our Adventure Series.

The Regional Education Facility at Swift Ponds is an incredible 240-acre facility and a perfect environment for strengthening families, promoting the values of sportsmen and educating people on the conservation and use of our natural resources.
This past fall a ribbon-cutting was held in celebration of the completion of an open-air pavilion, fishing dock and restroom. These additional facilities greatly enhance the use of the property which bosts 12 fishing ponds. Swift Ponds is a large group use area for picnicking, fishing, camping, environmental and outdoor education that is available to qualified youth oriented non-profit organizations.
