Ekone Ranch

Located on 1100+ acres of protected land on the edge of Rock Creek Canyon, Ekone Ranch has been welcoming campers to its facilities for around 40 years now. The camp's philosophy is one of creating a community and having fun.

To that end, campers spend almost all of their time outside playing, creating art, and exploring nature in all of its forms. Sharing duties is also an essential part of the camp experience at Ekone Ranch. As a result, campers take turns cooking meals, caring for the garden, and feeding the animals.

Sessions last five and six nights, with each session hosting up to 25 children within one of their two age groups. Some weeks are focused on traditional camp activities like horseback riding or music. Others, like the Lizard McGizzard Camp, focus on carpentry, canning, and pasta making.

Regardless of the summer camp they choose, children can stay in the newly-renovated bunkhouse or directly under the stars.
