To all of the passionate sponsors of Colorado Youth Outdoors through the fundraising event The Maverick, I would like to Thank You.  This years event was yet another record breaker.  Record attendance, record funds raised and even record warm temperatures to go with the event.  The Maverick would not be anything like it is without you.  Your sponsorship and support not only allows us to provide such a venue, but more importantly allows us to do what we do best, invest in relationships between youth and their parents through traditional outdoor recreation. We are also very fortunate to have proud event sponsors, Johns Manville – Anadarko – CZ  USA.    We hope to see you all next spring with your shooting skills tuned up and ready to have a “BLAST”

On behalf of the Board members, Staff, Volunteers and Participants of Colorado Youth Outdoors; We say Thank You.

Enjoy your families, enjoy our outdoors and God Bless

Far too often I find that our organization has communicated information worth celebrating to audiences that are too specific.  Meaning the organization of CYO has grown to where we now have many audiences with much more broad landscapes.  In May, after the completion of the 2011 Maverick, we wrote this letter to the participants (audience) of the event.  I believe this letter is worthy of all audiences as it demonstrates another point of celebration for the organization which is everyone who is interested in the promotion / growth of our Mission.  So whether you are a participant of our programming, a sponsor of any fashion, an interested by stander or a passionate person hoping to find your fit into the organization I believe you will agree that his information is worth celebrating.
