“The staff at Teen Ranch truly enhanced the learning of the students we brought for the leadership retreat. From the planning phases to the day of the activities, the organization and helpful consultation made the day run smoothly. We had a large group of 80 students and the staff at Teen Ranch had no troubles accommodating, feeding and making sure everyone had a great experience that will be filled with life long memories.”
