Aspen Camp of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing
18 students, seven teachers, and 10 local volunteers joined the four-day pilot program for the job skills training camp at the Aspen Camp for the deaf and hard of hearing in Old Snowmass on Wednesday, May 4, 2022. The students were 17 years old to 21 years old and attending transition programs as they enter adulthood. The students came from three different schools for the deaf in Colorado, New Mexico and Utah and came to learn gain skills as they leave high school. The group worked on projects such as rebuilding the stage and seating outside, painting the main lodge, clearing fallen trees, installing the new entrance sign, and pruning trails.
