CAMP CHIEF YMCA of the ROCKIES OURAY BETTER TOGETHER 2018 ANNUAL REPORT CONFIDENCE, INDEPENDENCE & RESILIENCE Youth today have fewer and fewer opportunities to be outside and connect with nature. Confidence, independence, and resilience—critical skills for a successful adulthood—are skills that can be learned through new experiences, problem solving and facing challenges head-on. Camp provides these opportunities and we are forever grateful to be serving youth in this way. We hear from so many campers and their families that camp changed their life. A child who was shy and timid before camp, now willingly tries new things and isn’t afraid. A child who struggled with making friends, is social and outgoing after coming home from camp. We call this phenomenon “Camp Magic”. This year, we embarked on a capital campaign to better serve our growing camp family. As Camp Chief Ouray begins to transform, we thank our past supporters and encourage future donors to join us on our road to an inspired future! In the spirit of camp, Julie Watkins Michael Ohl President/CEO Executive Director YMCA of the Rockies Camp Chief Ouray 2 / / 3 FROM ONE GENERATION TO THE NEXT 4 / / 5 YMCA of the Rockies promotes youth development by cultivating tomorrow’s leaders at our residential camp, Camp Chief CAMP Ouray. Parents know that camp builds confidence, independence and resilience, CHIEF OURAY therefore every year we receive increasing requests for financial assistance. Donations to camp ensure that no child is turned away due to the FRIENDS OF THE FIRE inability to pay. $1-$999 Wakako and Terje Aito Kristi Collins Kristina and Jeff Albright Maria Colton Alfred and Peg Alig Community First Foundation Annalee Altenberg Jenny and Chris Cookson Evelyn Amick Jim Cordell and Karen Vance Tim Anderson Alexandra Cordoy Jessica and Patrick Anson Andrew Cornelius CAMPFIRE CIRCLE Joe Ardito Casey and Jenny Cox $1,000+ Gabriel Atchley William Cox Marcio and Lisa Avillez Betty Crawford Lucy and Greg Achenbach Jim and Carlene Martin Connie Baker Wolf Heather and Tom Cronenberg Ron Adams and Tim Ronan Gerry and Gale Mazur Mike and Lisa Barnes Kristy and James Crooks Bill and Nancy Almond Dr. Alexander Meininger Robert and Susan Baum Catherine Maureen Cunningham Bennett and Judy Bertoli Bob and Liz Mennel Lindsay and Adam Bearup and Garth Vant Hul Nicole Boeckers Kent and Betty Meyer Mark and Janette Beasley CyberGrants Todd and Jennifer Budin Tom and Pati Miers John Bednarek Jacob Dahl Mark Butterman and Susan Blake Jennifer Mirczak Lisa and Jeff Bennett Kristen Danzig Newt and Mabel Campbell Julia and Steve Moomau Louise and Woodson Bercaw Sonali and David Das Scott and Steffy Clingan Mark and George Ann Nelsen Gretchen and Keith Bergen Joanne Day DB and John Daugherty Mike and Kyle Ohl Rob and Carol Berry Steve and Deb DeHaan Andrew and Mary Ann Degginger Larry and Angela Parsons Greg and Ann Bley Yamile Del Rosario Pic Jon and Tori Dietz Marlys and Lyle Polson Hadeel Bnyat DLG Family Susan M.
