2024 Family Camp at R-C Scout Ranch

Connecting Families to the Great Outdoors!

For an "Out of This World" experience...

Family Camp offers an amazing, fun-filled, outdoor camp experience for the entire family
with hands-on activities for kids of all ages.

We offer sessions during the week and on the weekends to work with your schedule. 

Each session is three days of activity and two nights of camping and
includes meals from Day 1 Lunch to Day 3 Lunch.
We invite you to arrive early and add on an extra night of camping.

We offer exciting activities including Archery, BB guns, Slingshots, Fishing, Hiking, Family games, and much more. You can even take your family on a Horseback Trail ride along Christopher Creek! Please see the Parent's Guide for more details.

The Class Schedule portal is open and you can select your preferred activities for your youth as well as the Horse Trail Ride and Pony Rides (Horse Led Ride). Please see the Weekend Scheduling Guide and the Weekday Scheduling Guide for the activity schedule and important tips.  For parents who would like to schedule a Horse Trail Ride, please contact GCC.Program@GrandCanyonBSA.org and we will gladly set that up for you.

We have a variety of lodging options available for families: rustic tents, family tents, and cabins. Please see the Parents' Guide for more information on these options.

Our Family camp is open to all family members. All youth must be accompanied by a parent or an adult family member (at least 21 years old) at all times. Young children are also welcome to attend with their families. There will be a Tot Lot available for younger children, who are potty trained, to have hands-on activity time while parents and older siblings attend activities during the day.

We will also have the R-C Trading Post with snacks, fun items and a limited number of Family Camp t-shirts. 

You can learn more about what makes R-C Family Camp special in the easy-to-follow Parents' Guide.

Let us help you connect with your family in the great outdoors!

Horse Trail Ride Information
A variety of horses are brought to R-C each summer with the main focus of youth riders.  During each trail ride, depending on the size of the adults and availability of the horses will determine whether a horse is available for an adult. We do have a 220 lb. maximum weight limit for our riders. The safety of our riders and the well-being of our horses is always our priority. Our Parents' Guide is also updated with this additional information as of 5/31/2024.
