2026 HONOREES
2026 Paul Newman Legacy Award Honoree – Ruth Johnson
This anniversary year is especially meaningful as we honor Ruth Johnson, founding president and CEO, with the Paul Newman Legacy Award. The Paul Newman Legacy Award celebrates individuals who, like Paul Newman, have made a lasting commitment to the long-term sustainability of camp. Because of her leadership, and the community she galvanized, Roundup River Ranch is not only thriving today, but positioned to flourish well into the future. Her legacy lives on in every laugh that echoes across camp, every obstacle bravely overcome, and every family who finds hope within the Roundup River Ranch community.
2026 Community Champion Recipient – Alpine Bank
The Community Champion Award honors a corporate partner whose commitment to Roundup River Ranch has remained steadfast since our earliest days. For over 20 years, Alpine Bank has exemplified what it means to be a true community partner- providing not only financial support, but leadership, expertise, and heartfelt advocacy for children with life-altering diagnoses and their families.
