We're so excited to announce that Coombs Outdoors has purchased a unicorn of a space that magically fills all our needs to run our programs into the future. We're calling it the Coombs Clubhouse - a permanent place for all of our participants to feel welcome, inspired, and empowered in the heart of Jackson Hole.

Located at the corner of Snow King and Glenwood, the new Coombs Clubhouse has room for all our organizational needs which are currently spread across 4 different temporary, leased locations: offices, program space, gear storage, and van parking.

We are so grateful for the leap of faith taken by the Coombs Board, our generous donors, and the seller of the building. This is an exciting opportunity for us to permanently plant roots in Jackson, allowing us to continue to grow and make a difference in our community.

Learn more in this article from the Jackson Hole News & Guide.

“Despite not having had a permanent residence, Coombs Outdoors has become a staple within this outdoor community, as its message of inclusivity has spread through many different groups of people in Jackson. But now that it has a ‘forever home,’ as Wolfrom Holladay described it, Coombs is poised to reach even more.”

With financial support from 100% of the Coombs Board of Directors and leadership gifts from several generous donors, we were able to fund a sizable downpayment that made the initial purchase of the building possible. However, we need additional funding to get it over the finish line. We invite friends and community members to support this momentous effort through the Coombs Clubhouse Campaign. If you are interested in a tour of the building or pledging your support, please reach out to jenny@coombsoutdoors.org.

Thanks for being part of Skiing with the Stars!

This year’s Skiing with the Stars event was beyond special. The energy, enthusiasm, and support for Coombs Outdoors and our mission is inspiring and validating. It is hard to put into words how grateful we are to all the people who joined us to celebrate and support what we do. You’re all stars in our book!

From the slopes to the dance floor, it was our largest and most successful event ever. Dollars raised through Skiing with the Stars will help fund our year-round programs for kids in grades K-12 which include skiing programs, swimming lessons, spring break trips, college visits, internships, professional development workshops, summer camps, afterschool workshops, and so much more. Your generosity will help more than 450 local kids like Aldric and Edwin, who you heard from at the event, grow up with the power and influence of outdoor recreation through Coombs programs.

THANK YOU!
