Our mission is to connect people with nature through outdoor recreation and experiential learning.

Circle R Ranch (est. 1966) is a summer camp and outdoor education centre located on a diverse 220 acres of Carolinian forest, fields, ponds, and is bordered by the Dingman creek watershed.

In the summer, campers connect with nature and animals. Our main program is horseback riding and other activities include canoeing, swimming, archery, farm animal care, campfires and team building.  At Circle R campers develop life-long friendships, self esteem, empathy, bushcraft and stewardship skills, cooperation, as well as be inspired to learn and live in wonder of the natural world. 

In the fall and spring, we offer western horseback trail riding and lessons.  During the winter, cross country skiing and snowshoeing are available.  Outdoor education programming is offered in the fall, winter, and spring for schools and other groups.  We also provide facility rental, birthday parties, wagon rides, and more. We welcome all feedback and invite you to like us on Facebook to receive notifications of upcoming events. 

Circle R continues to monitor the global COVID-19 situation. Our top priority is the health and safety of our campers, our staff, and our communities.

DAY CAMP

Day campers experience the thrills, fun, and adventure of camp and return home each evening. Day campers can play, explore, spend time in the outdoors and make new friends while having the time of their lives!

LEADERSHIP

Our leadership programs provide life skills, resume-building experiences, and have proven to develop strong leaders. Participants gain valuable leadership experience in preparation for a variety of employment opportunities, including working at Circle R Ranch.

Summer Camp at Circle R Ranch

Since 1966 we have been providing quality, safe, and welcoming summer camp programs for youth aged 5-16.

At camp our mission is to provide all campers an opportunity for
personal growth and development. Living and participating in a community setting offers campers a physically and emotionally safe venue for developing life-long friendships, a strong sense of belonging and increased self-esteem. Campers gain independence, learn about responsibility, and come to understand how their own actions can impact other people.

At Circle R we offer summer day camp and leadership programs, including a variety of programming and activities for kids of all ages! During the school year we also offer PA day camps, and a March Break day camp.  See here for camp applications, dates, and fees.
