The Family Program at Roundup River Ranch

Our Family Program offers children with chronic and life-threatening illnesses and their immediate families an unforgettable camp experience modeled after our Summer Camp Program. We welcome families for a weekend of laughter, respite, family connections, and camp fun – completely free of charge to all participants.

While at camp, families have the opportunity to focus on a joyful experience rather than the concerns associated with having a child or sibling with a life-threatening illness. Families – often for the first time – create special memories and enjoy each other’s company in our safe, medically and emotionally supportive camp environment. As all members of the family discover, camp is fun! Where else will you see dads on the zip line, brothers and sisters dancing together after meals, parents or guardians creating masterpieces in arts and crafts, and more!
