The Elizabeth Colt Legacy Foundation is proud to announce that it has disbursed $5,000 to the Washington Adventure Camp in Raton, New Mexico for 2006. These funds allowed five young people between the ages of 12 and 18 to attend camp.

The Ladies Gun (a highly fashionable Colt Single Action Army revolver) will be sold by raffle at the 2008 Colt Show. The funds will go to the ECLF. The foundation will be announcing further disbursements at the 2008 show in Houston.
