What is Generation Wild of the Pikes Peak Region?
Generation Wild of the Pikes Peak Region partners with the Catamount Institute, City of Colorado Springs Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services, Colorado Parks and Wildlife, Fountain Creek Watershed, Hillside Community Center, Kids on Bikes, Mile High Youth Corps, North Cheyenne Canyon's Starsmore Visitor and Nature Center, Rocky Mountain Field Institute, and Camp Shady Brook YMCA of the Pikes Peak Region. These incredible partnerships help us to host events, field trips, summer camps, and more in our community to promote the exploration of nature!
Great Outdoors Colorado (GOCO) created the Generation Wild movement to connect kids and families to outdoor activities. In response to GOCO's call, the Generation Wild of the Pikes Peak Region coalition was formed to encourage kids and families in Southeast Colorado, and beyond, to spend time together outside--improving overall health, and fostering a love, appreciation, and familiarity with nature and the natural beauty in the Pikes Peak Region.
Our free or significantly reduced cost programs target the children in Southeast Colorado Springs, but are open to all children throughout the Pikes Peak Region without scholarship assistance! Want to support or sponsor a program? Give us a call at 719-471-0910 x110
