OUR MISSION

Epic Experience’s pinnacle program is a weeklong adventure camp at no cost to adults who have been diagnosed with cancer. We are committed to showing participants that cancer no longer defines them. Through outdoor activities and virtual programs, we seek to engage individuals in the healing process and establish a supportive community among fellow thrivers. 

 As the “2020 Nonprofit of the Year” for the Arvada Chamber of Commerce and recorded in the Congressional Record by Representative Ed Perlmutter, Epic Experience has been nationally recognized and helped put Arvada on the map as a place of love, compassion and family.
