All-4-Fun locations include places like Empire, Leadville, Silverton and other great cities. There is a fee to attend and registration is required per vehicle family. Plenty of food, drinks and fun occur every year and there's always entertainment to keep you busy. Group trips are available through our rugged mountains. As many as 12 groups leave from camp on Sunday through Tuesday, Thursday and Friday for excursions in the area mountains. Some trips will test your skills as a driver and put your rig through its paces. Other trips can leave you speechless as you view the stunning scenery that the Rocky Mountains give us in our great state.
Wednesday is our annual vendor show with something for everyone. There are games for the kids and even some fun games for the more mature kids, or adults, as some people call'em. There is a great BBQ for lunch and a Show & Shine event to put your rig in if you would like. Prizes are awarded for the Kid's Games and Show & Shine that evening after a BBQ dinner.
Thursday evening we have our big drawings for prizes given to us by our vendors, patrols and some attendees. Raffle tickets are sold each night to help raise money for COHVCO and Children's Hospital's Burn Center. The State Association Vehicle is normally there and tickets are sold for the annual raffle of the rig. There is always some entertaining antics by some groups called Sheites, Pirates and Hoobs. Want to learn more about them? Come and join us to find out what they're all about.
Friday we end up the week with a live band, dinner and dancing. You will not be disappointed in the All-4-Fun event. Come and join us and come to know the great State of Colorado and some of the greatest trail runs in the country. Hope to see you there
