Hosted by Colorado Parks and Wildlife, the City of Colorado Springs, and Pikes Peak Outdoor Recreation Alliance, Get Outdoors Day is an annual event for kids and families to engage with vendors and learn about ways to explore our great outdoors. The annual event is held the first Saturday in June at Memorial Park/ Prospect Lake. Get Outdoors Day features a variety of outdoor businesses and nonprofit agencies ready to introduce kids and their families to outdoor activities here in the Pikes Peak Region. In previous years, visitors have explored outdoor activities such as biking, kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, fly fishing, spin fishing, mapping, shooting, and more! Get Outdoors Day offers the opportunity to learn about trail maintenance and projects, conservation, and the Leave No Trace principles. The goal of Get Outdoors Day is to connect people to the great outdoor recreation opportunities that we have in the local Pikes Peak Region and to provide the opportunity to learn a new hobby, practice a new trade, or learn about opportunities to connect with and conserve our outdoor spaces.
SAVE THE DATE, JUNE 7th from 9AM-2PM at Memorial Park/Prospect Lake! We can’t wait to see you then!
