Get Involved, Have Fun, Give Back this Season

There are so many fulfilling ways for alumni to stay connected with Adventure Unlimited. Here are just a few coming up:

Spice up your holidays with Christmas Camp
From skiing and riding horses through the snow to decorating cookies and sitting by the fire, there’s nothing like being a guest at the A/U Ranches for Christmas – and the best part is feeling the Christ spirit. Learn more and register

A big thank you: #AURaftingChallenge exceeded!
The incredible Adventure Unlimited community answered the call put forth by the Pecheck family to raise $10,000 to purchase a new raft and other supplies for the program. Thanks to their $5,000 matching gift, plus another $5,000 challenge from Highest Peak Foundation (the Colarossi family), a total of $16,000 was raised to purchase two new rafts and equipment. We’re so grateful to all of you who participated in this effort. Be sure to check out the new rafts next summer!

Next matching opportunity: Campership gifts doubled
You can help us ensure no child is ever turned away from attending Youth Camp for financial reasons – with twice the impact! All gifts to the Campership Endowment Fund through Adventure Unlimited’s Bridges to the Future Campaign will be doubled through December 31, 2016, thanks to a generous $250,000 match by Dick and Ginny Voell. Donate now
