LATINO FAMILY CAMPS
Campamentos Familiares
LATINO FAMILY CAMPS
During each weekend program, family members are fully immersed in nature - camping, hiking, fishing, mountain biking, summiting peaks, and building connections with others and confidence with accomplishment of each new outdoor activity. From scholarships to gear, we strive to break down barriers for participation. All activities are led in Spanish by professional Latinos, recruited from the same community that we serve.
We offer ~20 weekend long family camps each year at Cal-Wood, Rocky Mountain National Park, CO State Parks, and local/regional parks.
OUR EXPANSION INITIATIVE
Even with demonstrated success and unmet demand (800% growth since 2014), Cal-Wood is still the only organization engaging Latino families through overnight camping at this level in Colorado. This is why we launched our expansion initiative. Through this effort, We seek to empower other organizations to implement Latino Family Camps in their communities. We plan to build partnerships, guide partners through the process and create the resources necessary to educate and inspire organizations statewide to engage a growing community of Latino explorers and nature lovers!
