THANK YOU

HARBOR FREIGHT TOOLS FOR SCHOOLS was the financial backing behind the Skilled Trades Camp in 2020, and they continue to help us today!  Several winners of the Harbor Freight Prize for Teaching Excellence assist Troy Reichert (pictured above) as counselors during the summer camps.

THE DANIELS FUND, established by cable television pioneer Bill Daniels, is a private charitable foundation dedicated to making life better for the people of Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming through its grants program, scholarship program, and ethics initiative.  They have been sponsoring the Skilled Trades Camps since 2021 and have provided the finances needed to provide a safe, fun, and educational opportunity for the high school students who attend.

AGC OF WYOMING, under the leadership of Dan Benford, has been instrumental in helping attendees of the Skilled Trades Camp receive information about future careers in the skilled trades, and has also provided financial sponsorships of our open house activities over the years.  Several of their members have also made financial contributions to our camps and they continue to be a valuable asset to our camp.

UNIVERSITY OF WYOMING TRUSTEES EDUCATION INITIATIVE partnered with our camps right away in 2021 and has provided our campers with an opportunity each year to visit the UW campus, tour their facilities, stay overnight in the dorms, and learn about their construction management program.

SHAPPS (Sunrise Historic and Prehistoric Preservation Society) oversees our camps and provides campers with the opportunities to see the archaeological dig site currently being excavated right across the street from the YMCA.

KING ROPES has been a generous donor of hats for the campers every year!
