Non-Profit in the Spotlight: Ascendigo, Part 3

 Ascendigo Executive Director, Hugh Zuker, discusses the organization's programs and the importance of the organization's work in the Roaring Fork Valley.

Ascendigo is best known for its summer camp.  Through individualized instruction, participants do a host of outdoor activities including hiking, kayaking, water skiing, and rock climbing. Ascendigo also offers an adult enrichment program and a winter sports program.

Zuker says his goal for the organization is to give everyone the chance to enjoy the outdoor and recreational opportunities available in the Roaring Fork Valley, no matter the challenges.
