Activities

Blue Mountain Ranch offers activities for every kid not just the athlete. We have over 400 acres AND are surrounded by Pike National Forest making this the ideal place to cut loose from all the rigors of academia. Your child will smile till it hurts. Here your child can try his or her hand at mountain climbing, archery, fishing or arts and crafts projects just to name a few. How about riding seven miles through the National Forest or whooshing down a 3,000+ foot alpine slide? We’ve got it all.

WEEKENDS:

  • Saturdays are regularly scheduled activities and then…  THE Dances.  Each Saturday night the kids dance and socialize to today’s “popular” tunes and one weekend we have an “Oldies dance” so send fun costumes to camp with your campers. 
  • Sundays we have scheduled activities your camper can choose to participate in or…  not.  They can sit in a field and watch the clouds go by or nap or do what ever they darn well please.  In the evening we have a nondenominational worship service and announce the campers of the week.

PARENTS DAY ACTIVITIES

Families of campers are cordially invited to be our guests for activities and lunch on Picnic Hill from 10 AM until 2PM on the dates below.  Lunch will be served outdoors weather permitting.  Please wear walking shoes and casual clothing for walking over camp.  We hope you will plan to attend.  Remember:  Parents’ Day is the day before campers depart for home.  However, you may take your child at that time if you wish.  Many campers prefer to stay.
