Date: September 25, 2021 Location: Colorado Youth Outdoors- Windsor, CO Hosted by: River Deep & SCIHOP Participating Groups: Operation TBI Freedom, Ft Carson SRU, VA Family, Fishing and Fun Day It was the perfect day for fishing and archery at Colorado Youth Outdoors. The water was calm and the day was peaceful and quiet, so all of the family and friends could enjoy each other's company. The ponds were full of fish and everyone had the opportunity to go fishing. Other than just appreciating a fun day outdoors, a few of the participants even caught some fish and others got a bullseye playing archery! For the children who were not interested in the other activities, they had a huge outdoor space to run free! For lunch, the All American Beef Battalion served ribeye, corn, mash potatoes, hot dogs, chips, and cookies. It was a fun and relaxing day with an incredible lunch. A big thank you to the All American Beef Battalion, Colorado Youth Outdoors, all of the volunteers, and all of the participants that made today a big success!

September 7th, 2019 Location: Colorado Youth Outdoors, Windsor, CO. Hosted By: River Deep Foundation and SCI HOP Participants: Craig Hospital, Operation TBI Freedom & Ft. Carson Warrior Transition Battalion It's a beautiful, fall day in northern Colorado. We gathered at the CYO outdoor pavilion, that is surrounded by ponds and the 3-D archery course. After a brief talk on the day's activities, we all headed out to the ponds and archery course. Everyone, including the kids, was catching fish and the families at the archery range were having a great time. Midday we gathered back up at the outdoor pavilion for a fantastic barbecue lunch, and continued on with the afternoon's activities. It's been a fun day and a big thanks to Colorado Youth Outdoors and it's staff, along with all the River Deep volunteers.

Wonderful to provide these families with a much needed day together of fun and relaxation. At lunchtime, we all gather at the outdoor pavilion for some delicious BBQ provided by Jim & Nicks BBQ Restaurant. They always provide a wonderful meal for everyone to enjoy.

Carson WTB Family fishing and archery at Colorado Youth Outdoors The sun is shining, the ponds have fish, and the archery course looks like fun. Both children and adults will be enjoying all that CYO has to offer. We have people on the ponds, at the 3-D archery range and some are just enjoying the scenery and the weather. On this outing we were joined by a group from the Colorado School of Mines who were there to learn and advance adaptive equipment that will help with fishing, archery, and shooting sports. Everyone is having a great time catching fish, hiking and slinging arrows. It's getting close to lunch time and the participants are gathering at the outdoor pavilion which overlooks one of the ponds. We were treated to lasagna, salad and cake pops from our friends at the Ranch West 40 restaurant in Lakewood. After lunch, it's back to the ponds and archery.

June 24, 2018 Location: Colorado Youth Outdoors, Windsor, CO. Hosted By: River Deep and SCI HOP Participants: Craig Hospital, Operation TBI Freedom, NoCo Veterans Alliance and Ft. Carson WTB Family Fishing and Fun Day This past weekend, River Deep and Denver SCI HOP hosted participants at Colorado Youth Outdoors in Windsor, CO. We had many ponds to fish, a 3-D archery range, and an outdoor pavilion where we had lunch, which was donated by the Escoffier Culinary Academy in Boulder. There were almost 100 people in attendance, including adults, children, volunteers, and guides. The skies were overcast which was good for fishing, but we had rain showers which came and went throughout the day. Everyone spread out, some went to the ponds and some went to the archery range. Some caught fish and some preferred to sling arrows. Either way, it was a great day in a beautiful surrounding. At lunchtime the group headed to the pavilion which is located on one of the ponds, so people could have lunch and fish at the same time. The Escoffier Culinary Academy always does a great job providing a delicious meal. After lunch it was back to the activities. It's been a great day and a big thanks to all who helped make it possible. Bob Adwar SCI, VP/Humanitarian Chairman River Deep, President ![]()
