Ranch Camp is an innovative camp for children and adults with mental handicaps. It is designed and operated with their special needs in mind. Ranch Camp is licensed by the Texas Department of Health.

Ranch Camp is located on the beautiful 267 acre Down Home Ranch located northeast of Austin. Ranch Camp has swimming, fishing, kayaking, BB guns, archery, horses, nature walks, drama, crafts, and a party EVERY night! Campers sleep in air-conditioned bunkhouses and enjoy their meals in an air-conditioned dining hall.

Campers 13 and up who have mental handicaps are welcome. They must be physically and emotionally well. Campers with controlled seizure disorders may apply.
