As school comes to an end and summer adventures are upon us, we want to express our gratitude for an amazing 2025/2026 school year. During field science programs, Youth Programs hosted over 4,231 students from Eagle County and beyond! Thank you to all the schools, teachers, and students who visited us this year.

Special shout out to ECCA 4th graders and SCCS 3rd graders for being awesome during our Mountain Explorers overnight programs at our Sweetwater Campus!💫
