Explorer Camp Lafayette - Day Camps is part of Avid4 Adventure, which states a mission of believing in the transformative power of the outdoors and offering activities such as paddling, biking, rock climbing, and hiking. The program is led by a team that includes founder David Secunda, a former president of the Outdoor Industry Association and a 25-year veteran of the outdoor education industry. Instructors are described as incredibly well-trained and professional, are 18 and older, and have serious safety and skills training, with a camper-to-staff ratio of 5:1. The program is accredited by the American Camp Association, is a Certified B Corp, and has been named among Colorado Parent’s Top 5 Sports Camps. Families can access top-of-the-line gear specifically sized for kids, and Avid4 Adventure transports campers to recreation areas for activities and returns groups to the facility for afternoon pick up. The camp is backed by the Avid4 Adventure Guarantee and offers a multi-session/sibling discount of $25 off per session after the first, a referral program that gives friends $50 off their first camp and provides a $50 coupon for a future 2026 camp after purchase, and a $65 service discount for qualifying professions. The program strongly encourages campers to bring their own bike for biking day and asks that any training wheels be removed prior to camp.

Parent testimonials describe children learning new outdoor skills such as riding a bike without training wheels and continuing to talk about camp weeks later, and they describe the staff as mature, responsible, and excited to share their passion with children.
