Programs include mountain and water activities, horsemanship, ropes courses, and school outdoor-education offerings. In recent years the organization has maintained multi-million-dollar annual revenues and a strong balance sheet while receiving significant philanthropic support for scholarships and capital projects; it continues to file annual Form 990s and operate its Greenwood Village headquarters and Colorado ranch facilities.
