All programs are free, but all vehicles entering the park must have a daily pass, $8, or an annual pass, $70. For additional information please call 970-669-1739.

Friday Night Kid's Activity: Life of a Squirrel - Camp Loop A/B Main Building, 7 p.m.

A Colorado Parks and Wildlife Volunteer Fishing Instructor will be here to teach young kids the art of fishing. He will cover basics such as parts of the rod, bait choices, casting and much more. We will have some spare rods and materials to loan. Supplies are limited so if you have your own please bring it. An adult will be required to attend with their children. Children under 16 do not need a fishing license.
Sunday, July 29:
Exploration Station; Water Conservation - Swim Beach, 10 a.m. - 2 p.m.
Water is important to everything on the planet, but how? Come find out some interesting, and sometimes shocking facts about water use in the United States. We'll discuss the importance of water conservation and how even the youngest person can help solve our water problems for the future.
