After Dark is Coming Together: Join Us!
This is an After Dark you won't want to miss. Why? It's new and old. It's fun and different. It's accessible to all parties, no matter how you want to attend.
We're going “back to our roots” to share stories of how people find connection at Outdoor Lab. We'll be reminded of why we began: to get kids outdoors to allow them to explore, connect and "be". We hope the stories told and the experience had at After Dark will have the same kind of impact on your well-being. And we hope that you will help us continue this mission for many generations.

Help Us Name a New After Dark Concoction
Scott and Todd Leopold, founders of Leopold Bros. Distilling, are both Outdoor Lab alumni. And proud of it. They have been avid supporters of what the Outdoor Lab Foundation is about: ensuring ALL 6th grade students in Jefferson County attend Outdoor Lab, regardless of ability or disability, including the ability to pay.
For After Dark this year, Leopold Bros. has created and is donating a cocktail for our guests, similar to how they did last year. Want to help us name it? Here's what you need to know: it's a concoction with bourbon, tea and peach liqueur. We'd give you the whole recipe, but it's a secret!

Chapman Orthodontics, the Orthodontist that Gives Back
OLF Chosen as Odell's Summer Charitable Partner
Chapman Orthodontics is the orthodontist office that gives back.
Located in Wheat Ridge, they provide high quality treatment in an approachable, professional atmosphere. They honor their patients & each other as individuals- just go visit their office! Each time a person gets their braces off, they get a picture hung in the office. Paige, OLF's Executive Director, still has hers hanging up!
Why does Dr. Chapman support OLF?
He hopes to aid other students in having the same experience he had at Outdoor Lab. He attended as a student and can still recall it. He loved being away from home for a week with his friends and teachers and being in the mountains.
Looking to brighten or improve your smile? They're truly one of the best. Contact Chapman Orthodontics today!
Thanks for your After Dark sponsorship, Chapman Orthodontics! We are glad to have you back.
The Outdoor Lab Foundation was humbled to hear that we were chosen as Odell's Summer Charitable Partner this year! Odell Brewing Company partners with charitable programs that serve their communities; they seek organizations that engage their staff and fans in their philanthropic efforts. Odell specifically focuses their efforts in the fields of human services, education and environment.
Starting July 1, OLF is featured in both Odell Tap Rooms, located in Fort Collins and Denver's RiNo neighborhood. Odell is helping support the Outdoor Lab program and Foundation through advocacy and financial contributions.
