Quakers Who Ski

Young Friends Update



During 2007, young Friends held our annual ski trip at the nearby Snowy Range in Wyoming. The day was cold and full of snow. Our skill levels are rising each year and we might have to graduate to one of the bigger resorts in Colorado one of these winters.


In the spring, we went to Elitch Gardens in Denver to celebrate the end of school, though our First Day School continues all year round. And in the late summer, we go camping along the Poudre River. The Poudre and its canyon are one of our natural playgrounds.
A few years back, we had a rock climbing day with David and Ashley Lloyd who are the caretakers of our Meeting House and awesome climbers.




At Christmas, we held a fundraiser and donated gloves and mittens to a local charity. We also donated funds to buy a goat and some chickens for a Heifer Project overseas.
