Having possibility, capability, or power. Building Potentials Campaign As Adam’s Camp continues to look to the future, we find many of the hopes and dreams we have for our organization coming true! Our goal is to serve all campers and families who have a desire to benefit from the programs we offer, and one way we are accomplishing this is by assisting others 2014 BOARD OF across the US in starting Adam’s Camp in their communities. Another vision we have is to continually improve our programs here in Colorado. Several DIRECTORS factors have come together making it clear that the best way we can do this is to create a new building ~ ~ ~ at Snow Mountain Ranch along with our partner there, the YMCA of the Rockies. Some of these factors are: Bill Harmon, President • As a result of more stringent licensing guidelines, we have an immediate need for a commercial kitchen for meal preparation. This need is urgent but will also help to assure the future of our Brian Simms, Vice Pres. Adventure Camp programs. • Two therapy teams will use this new space right away, allowing for improved access to experts, colleagues and equipment. A huge added bonus is that having our therapy provided in a space Clay Waller, Treasurer separate from other YMCA programming and away from traffic will be safer for our children. • This new therapy space is in addition to that which we already use so the potential for growing our Jennifer Roitz, Secretary therapy programs will exist in the future as a result of this added space. • The new building will bring our facilities closer to each other so we can create a stronger sense of Jim Brennan community. Two years ago, we created a gathering place between our therapy building, Adam’s Camp Summit, and the reunion cabins where the older Adventure Campers stay. So with this new building, our therapy programs, gathering space, sibling program, playgrounds and Adventure Jane Buckley camp groups will all be in the same area of Snow Mountain Ranch. Pat Colip It all adds up to BUILDING POTENTIALS, our second major campaign to fund a significant enhancement to the Adam’s Camp site. Jeff DePasse Adam’s Camp is about strengthening kids with special needs by strengthening their families and community. This campaign will allow us to build OUR community by bringing our programs closer Kim Kelleher together to encourage support, collaboration and fellowship between our campers and families.

Saddle Up staff planned a full Gotta love those reunions! evening of games that included roping, horseshoe toss, basketball, croquet and a late night game of duck-duck-goose that lasted well past scheduled bed-time! The night wouldn’t have been complete without s’mores though. After a night of tent camping, the group was split into three smaller groups and each one took about an hour at each of the three stations - stall cleanup and saddle polishing, barrel tricks and races, and horseback riding! While on the horse, each camper got to go through an obstacle course, trot away as ‘horse robbers’ or ‘sheriffs’ and deliver mail for the handlers. Not a bad way to fill a weekend, Adam’s Camp’s way. AHS Warrior Week Highlights Students for Adam’s Camp We couldn’t be more thrilled to have partnered with Arapahoe High School for the second year as recipients of the funds the students raised through Warrior Week. This week of school unity, particularly special this year in light of the tragedy in December, is a truly special opportunity for us to see some amazing teenagers in action as they collect money, organize events, and volunteer ~ all to support a nonprofit organization. On Monday, campers Abby Frary, Alexander Roitz, Eli Cohen, Will Harmon, Bobby Wright, Dmitri Yavich, and Gina Rea joined us at a concert featuring the talented CU Buffoons, a men’s acapella group. On Wednesday, our campers were invited to participate in a basketball game pitting the seniors against the staff. Campers Will Harmon, Ian Brennan, Claire Kemp, Marissa Powers, Peter Naffah, Amanda Leonard and Jake Whitney played their hearts out in the seniors’ win against the staff. Thanks so much to Advisors Jeff Brandberg and Lauren Lee and the Student Council for working so hard to raise over $12,000 for Adam’s Camp!

This one-of-a-kind event held on Sunday, April 13, 2014 at Cherry Creek High School featured the Can Do Cougars against the No Limits Lions all in support of the children and families of Adam’s Camp. The teams were made up of celebrities such as former Denver Nuggets, Earl Boykins, Walter Davis and Bill Hanzlik, CBS4 News anchor Jim Benemann, and 7News’ Theresa Marchetta, the crew from Partners in Pediatrics, supporters of Adam’s Camp and some very special campers. Guests got to see some great basketball but even greater entertainment including a performance by Biff Gore of NBC’s, The Voice. Together, we raised over $65,000 but that’s not the only amazing thing that happened. Our second year of Hoops for Hope was a wonderful celebration of all that Adam’s Camp values: children, families, teamwork, fun and hope. Our campers played side by side with former professional athletes. Cheerleaders and dancers with special needs gave it their all as did Biff Gore. Everybody came together demonstrating what we can do when we focus on realizing potentials and developing strengths. A big thank you goes to our partners in hosting an annual spring family event for over 20 years, Partners in Pediatrics as well as to all of our sponsors, donors, players and guests.

    Women’s Golf Tournament Program - 116 pages PING CELEBRATES 50 YEARS IN G OLF RICH HARVEST FARMS Fifty years ago, the first PING® putter was shipped from the Redwood City, California, garage of Karsten and Louise Solheim. The PING® 1A™ putter inaugurated a revolution in golf club design and manufacturing that would see Karsten’s company grow into a brand world-renowned for innovation and unequalled quality. Karsten, with his family at his side, went on to pioneer custom fitting and bring new processes to the manufacturing of golf clubs, including investment casting and heat treating. He recognized the value of scientific research and employed high speed cameras and a robotic golfer (The PING® Man) to analyze the dynamics of the golf club. His insistence on adhering to strict engineering principles and tight manufacturing tolerances raised the level of product performance and quality throughout the golf industry. It all led to more enjoyment for golfers all over the world. An engineer with an extensive background in the defense, aerospace and computer industries, he remains the only engineer to be inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame. Among the game-changing products that will be forever associated with Karsten are the Anser® putter and EYE2® irons. BUNKER HILL His wife of 63 years, Louise, who turned 91 in June, vividly remembers RICH HARVEST FARMS the moment Karsten informed her of his new putter’s name. “He came Be careful running into the kitchen,” she recalled, “and said, ‘I’ve got a name for my putter.’ I said ‘That’s nice, honey,’ and we ate our hamburgers and Proud sponsorof the of LPGA flat green vegetables without any particular celebration.

  • Historical Backgrounder
    HISTORICAL BACKGROUNDER Nestled in the canyons of Los Angeles, Hotel Bel-Air has been a hideaway for world travelers for well over half a century. A visionary significant in the development of the area, Alphonso E. Bell created Bel-Air Estates in 1922. Bell acquired over 600 acres west of the city of Los Angeles, naming his new purchase “Bel-Air.” Determined that the estates would become an exclusive and upscale neighborhood, he enhanced the surrounding area with new roads, utilities, a country club and lush, exotic vegetation. What is now Hotel Bel-Air’s main mission-style building was originally built as Bell’s estate planning and sales offices. These offices were located next to the Bel-Air Stables where residents could board their horses and enjoy the miles of equestrian trails winding throughout the canyons. For the next few decades Bell’s dream flourished. In 1946 Joseph Drown, a hotel entrepreneur from Texas, purchased 18 acres, and the land offices, and began plans to create an elegant pastoral hotel hideaway encompassing most of the land. Drown immediately hired architect Burton Schutt to convert the buildings and construct the 62 rooms of what was to become Hotel Bel-Air. Drown transformed the grounds into lush, beautiful gardens, adding Swan Lake to the picturesque front lawn. He had a vision of creating a natural California oasis, planting palms, ficus trees and perennial blooms. Drown also closed the Stone Canyon stables and built the sparkling oval-shaped pool at the site of the original riding ring. The hotel opened on August 24, 1946.
