(EMAILWIRE.COM, August 18, 2011 ) ESTES PARK, Colo. -- YMCA of the Rockies is all about having fun with your family and their newest family getaway packages are a nod to their quirky side. At YMCA of the RockiesÂ’ 5,100 acre Snow Mountain Ranch, families can try out a 50s Sock Hop Getaway and Wildlife Weekend packages. August 19-21, imagine traveling back in time to an era with roller skating parties, swing dancing lessons, outdoor movies, and sock hops. This could be the perfect end of summer vacation before the kids head beack to school. To celebrate the beginning of fall, try the Wildlife Weekend when the Aspens should be turning gold and the elk bugling. This weekend includes educational aspects such as learning about native plants and wildlife, photography hikes, and nature-inspired arts and crafts.
In addition to themed activities, family getaway packages include two nights lodging, five buffet-style meals per person, and other on property activities such as the water slide and pool, mini golf, and roller skating. Family packages are scheduled for Friday-Sunday. For the first time this year, families can choose from either lodge-style or camp site accommodations. There are also RV rates for those who want to bring the comforts of home along.
