ENOR Turns 50!

EAGLE’S NEST OWL’S ROOST (ENOR) Environmental Discovery Camp of Colorado State University Extension in Jefferson County celebrates its 50^th anniversary in 2024.

The camp began in the 1970’s and has pioneered education for over 20,000 children in 4th through 8th grade, in outdoor skills and stewardship of the local open spaces and trails.

Stories abound from participants about the impact of ENOR on the youth who attend, instilling passion for outdoor activities and careers, and demonstrating a deepened commitment to taking care of nature. The program was honored for its effort in pioneering outdoor youth education in January 2024 at Jefferson County Open Space’s Conservation Awards with the Gamble Oak Award.

Registration for 2024 is open to Denver-Metro youth at https://jeffco.extension.colostate.edu/programs/enor-environmental-discovery-camp/

Scholarships available.
