What makes Roundup River Ranch so extraordinary?
We make campers with serious illnesses feel like ordinary kids. Giggling, laughing, conspiring, arrow-shooting, horseback-riding, art-creating kids. We help campers and their families enjoy the gift of extraordinarily joyful moments, lasting friendships, newfound courage, and memories that remain long after the last s’more is devoured.
Connected by a powerful
commitment to childhood.
We are part of the SeriousFun Children’s Network, a global community of medical specialty camps founded by Paul Newman. He believed that kids with serious illnesses needed a place to “kick back and raise a little hell.” And we couldn’t agree more.

We are so excited to finally announce the official new names of our bear-y good friends - Paulie, Ruthie, and Paulie! 🐻🐻🐻 THANK YOU to everyone who voted and helped us decide their forever camp names! Each option was meaningful in it`s own way, and we are thrilled that the bears will honor a few of the key people who made Roundup River Ranch possible.
Paulie: In honor of Paul Newman, the founder of SeriousFun camps
Ruthie: In honor of Ruth Johnson, our founding President and CEO
Fergie: In honor of our generous donors, the Fergusons
Be sure to say hello to Paulie, Fergie, and Ruthie next time you`re out at camp! ❤️
