Bumble Bee Ranch is nestled in the foothills of the Bradshaw Mountains. The Ranch has wonderful amenities including ~ covered dining pavilion, with propane patio heaters for those chilly evenings and crisp mornings. Bathrooms and showers are available. A few camp sites offer electrical hookups and water. Water is available at Strategic locations around the ranch. The ranch staff will be providing our meals. Your price of $144.00 includes 2 nights camping, breakfast Friday through Sunday, dinner Friday and Saturday. And your ride fee of $25.00 for BCHCAZ is tax deductible. This ride fee has remained unchanged for several years now. The Ranch is also offering a hamburger/hot dog dinner on Thursday night for an additional $12 and camping on Thursday night for $10 per vehicle.

The altitude is approximately 2,200 feet so the weather will be very pleasant during the day with cool evenings. In case of adverse weather, be prepared and have coats and/or rain gear for yourself and a blanket for your horse. Well shod horses are a must in the rocky terrain.

And did we mention we will also be having a live auction and a silent auction!
