Farewell and Good Luck, TC

KADEP says Goodbye to Exercise Specialist, TC Doyle.  TC worked at KADEP for four years.  Some of the participants gifted TC with cereal, peanut butter, and jelly.  He will be missed. TC will be working at Craig Hospital as an exercise specialist. We hope to see you around soon!

Thank You Summer Interns

KADEP would like to thank the Four Fantastic Interns.  Makena, Brianna, Rachel, and Katie completed a 16 week summer internship program in Therapeutic Recreation.  They were a joy to have around and will always be part of the KADEP family. 

Makena has been hired as a full time KADEP staff member and will be starting as a full time Recreation Therapist with the new semester. 

We wish the other interns the best of luck as they continue their adventures in the Therapeutic Recreation Field.

KADEP's Meditation Group visits Boulder Shambhala Center

KADEP's Meditation group visited the Boulder Shambhala Center Tuesday morning. Thank you to Barbara and Walter who have helped lead our Meditation group this semester. 

This summer 10 campers and 5 staff headed down to experience and adventure with the Adaptive Sports Center of Crested Butte! We went tent camping for two nights at Elk Creek campground just next to the Blue Mesa Reservoir and spent a full day rafting down the Taylor River in whitewater rafts and kayaks! While the water levels were low we still experienced some raging whitewater at the kayak park and we covered a total of about 13 miles overall. After our two night trip we headed back into Denver for a little well deserved R&R…thank you Campers and the Adaptive Sports Center for working as a team to make this such a wonderful trip!

Thank you to KADEP camping coordinator, Amanda!
