Wild West Day

The locals’ favorite family fun day! Held at the beautiful 4 Eagle Ranch, Wild West Day offers something for everyone: silent auction; games to win gold coins to buy great prizes; craft booths; live music; BBQ lunch; trail, pony and wagon rides; and more!

Wild West Day benefits our 8 Public Elementary Schools: Avon, Brush Creek, Eagle Valley, Edwards, Gypsum, Meadow Mountain, Red Hill and Red Sandstone. Organized and run by Parent volunteers, it is the largest and most inclusive fundraiser in Eagle County, benefiting over 2000 students and their families. In 2006, each school earned just-under $20,000!!!!

Colorado ranks 49th in funding for public education! The money raised at Wild West Day is needed for teacher training, special programs, playground equipment, etc, as determined by each school’s parents and teachers. Never has so much fun been so important to our children.
