We're now only 75 days away from our first summer camp session! Our team is PUMPED and we hope you are too! Join us in our Countdown to Camp as we gear up for another amazing summer season.

Did you know? Sponsoring a Roundup River Ranch camper for a week-long Summer Camp is $3,000. That's just 30 people giving $100 dollars or 20 people giving $150. Whether you donate $5 or $3,000, every single dollar counts (and will be doubled thanks to the Frechette Family Foundation!)

Will you help us send a camper to Roundup River Ranch for a life-changing experience – 100% free of charge? Donate or create your own fundraiser page at our link in bio!

March is Child Life Month! We want to introduce you to Bethany, who is a Certified Child Life Specialist and our trusted camp liaison with many camper families… and she’s been working with Roundup River Ranch for 10 YEARS! ⭐

She plays a critical role in spreading the word about camp and helping caregivers complete their camp applications!

Our Admissions Manager, Mitzi said Bethany is “AMAZING at what she does, and our recruitment efforts wouldn’t be nearly as successful without her. Not only is she the reason so many kids hear about camp, with the incredible help she provides to families to finish applications, she is the reason so many campers come to camp!”

Bethany said she loves working with this team and hearing from caregivers about the impact camp makes on their camper.❤

Last week, our team headed back to #SeacrestStudios to bring camp joy to @childrenscolo. This month's activity was all about designing your own bucket hat! ☀ Outreach Manager Maria spent the morning handing out activity packets to patients in the hospital before jumping on the live broadcast to lead the craft. During her room visits, she learned that a few patients at Children's were aspiring fashion designers themselves and were excited to create their own hat!!

On the screen with Maria to introduce the activity was a former Roundup River Ranch camper, Ally! On air, Ally shared how camp helped shape her life as she drew a beautiful garden on her hat. 🌼

We had so much fun meeting new people, taking the time to create beautiful hats, and sharing a day together at Children's Hospital. See you next month!
