We are so excited to leave this Saturday for our June Wilderness Adventure Ranch! As you know, we doubled our program this year and will run a second Wilderness Adventure Ranch with another set of 10 at-risk teenagers in August. Our program team is excited to kick things off this Saturday at our new location on Cran-Hill Ranch near Big Rapids, MI. We will spend 5 days at Cran-Hill Ranch working with the horses and learning teambuilding and leadership skills.  On day 6, we shoot over to the North Country Trail for an 11 mile backpacking trip along the Manistee river. AMAZING things happen for these boys when we get them out into God’s creation!  We will be posting daily updates with pictures here on the blog from June 17 through June 25…please follow along and post encouraging comments to the boys!

We still have FIVE of the June families and NINE of the August families in need of scholarships.  One $2400 scholarship covers a whole family (at-risk teen, siblings, parents) for an entire 12-months for in-home case management, in-school mentoring, follow-up events, and summer camp.  If you know someone/church/business who may be interested to sponsor a family, please email me for a copy of our June teen profile cards giving you the choice for which teen you’d like to support.  Click DONATE to be directed to our secure online donation page.

Finally, don’t forget to schedule a Ranch-Raiser for your small group or family & friends.  I would love to personally come and talk to your group about our program and tell a few impact stories! Click HERE to learn more.

Thanks and God bless!
