<div>Hey everyone, we’re Uriel Llanas Vargas and Santiago Ramos, and we work for Detroit Outdoors, a Detroit-based collaborative working to get more people outside and enjoying the outdoors. As part of Detroit Outdoors, we do a yearly trip to Michigan Ice Fest that centers connecting new adult climbers of color from the Detroit area to ice climbing in Munising, MI – Pure Michigan even spotlighted our yearly trip in <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5NH0NRwcZE" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">this video</a>. This year for our birthdays we’re hoping to raise additional funds so that we can expand the trip to include Detroit youth, so they can experience the beauty of the upper peninsula in February and try ice climbing for the first time! If you’d care to read a little more about our individual connections to the outdoors and passion for the work that we do connecting youth to the outdoors, please read our more personal messages below. Thank you for your time, and we hope to see you outside!

<div>Hi everyone, my name is Uriel Llanas-Vargas. I also go by Uri. This September I turn 22 years old and it adds up to 4 years since I started my journey outdoors. My first experience that hooked me to this world I now find myself in was back in 2020, a month before our world entered its final stages of shutdown. I joined Detroit Outdoors that February to head up to the U.P. to Michigan Ice Fest, the trip that we are currently fundraising to expand. There were and still are no words that can describe what I thought, how I felt, as I walked up a hill and stared at the cliff coated in frozen waterfalls. Hearing my mentors, now colleagues, and having respected pro climber Phil Henderson there coaching me through the climb, then looking down as I finished the climb and seeing Lake Superior frozen over. That’s when I was hooked, but I also knew that I wanted to bring others to experience this. For the past two Ice Fests I did. Through Detroit Outdoors and the BOAT bus, we’ve been able to bring adult Detroiters up to the U.P. to experience the magic of ice climbing. This coming winter I want to expand that experience and run another trip specifically for youth, so that they can experience this magic I’ve found. For my birthday this year, I want to ask people to donate to Detroit Outdoors, $5, $10, $15, anything helps. Please join me in celebrating my birthday and make this dream a reality by donating! Thank you all!

<div>Hi everyone, my name is Santiago Ramos. I’ll be turning 28 this August, and this will be my 5th year working with Detroit Outdoors. I first met Uriel 6 years ago at a local Detroit non-profit called Congress of Communities. Shortly after that, Uriel found his way to Detroit Outdoors through our YMCA Bold &amp; Gold program. As he recounted in his story, ever since those very first interactions going on trips with us, he was hooked on all things outdoor recreation related. Being raised in a Latino household that did not completely understand the importance of the work that we do, along with getting to play a small role in connecting a young adult such as Uriel to these spaces and this work have been a huge part of the reason behind my passion for the work I do. Playing a part in providing the space and opportunities for youth of color to engage in the outdoors and be exposed to career pathways that I wasn’t aware of until well after college is something that drives me day after day to keep doing this work. So when Uriel presented the idea of this fundraiser for his birthday, I suggested combining forces and here we are! Thank you so much for helping us celebrate our birthdays and helping us connect more youth to Michigan’s natural spaces!
