We are thrilled and humbled to be able to present with a grant for $20,000 supported by OMA, the .

A collective of outdoors sales agencies based in Denver, OMA graciously celebrates nonprofits who embrace the spirit of the outdoors by giving back to community. We nominated Durango Trails because they tirelessly help make Durango the amazing community it is by connecting people to nature and the outdoors. This is a trail town, and we can’t imagine any other way. We’re proud to be a part of this, and to thank both of these inspiring organizations.

Thank you OMA and thank you Durango Trails! See you out there!
