It  will be located at the Flying A Ranch –- a pastoral setting surrounded by rolling hills and sweeping mountain views-- in beautiful San Diego County. Currently under development, the ranch will serve as home to 200 children who are no longer able to live at home. It is a place where neglected children can discover a world of sunrises and have room to play, as well as the receive the guidance and caring they need to flourish.

The camp will offer rope climbing courses, horseback riding, hiking, rock climbing, swimming, volleyball and basketball courts, soccer fields, an archery range and more. This working ranch will help youngsters build confidence, encourage teamwork and build an appreciation for nature's beauty.
