Outdoor Education Camp | CO School for the Deaf & Blind

Middle school students from CSDB's School for the Deaf and Rocky Mountain Deaf School spent the week at YMCA of the Rockies-Snow Mountain Ranch for an outdoor and adventure education camp.

Students participated in a number of activities including teambuilding, an aerial challenge course, archery, climbing, hiking, roller skating and more. They also learned about forest ecology and survival skills, got to hang out with huskies, and went tubing down a large hill. What a great week of skill building, socializing, and fun!
