Nighthawk Ranch - A Unique Summer Camp Experience
Summer is almost here and for many it means - summer camp! In Guffey, Colorado, there is a very special camp
which runs for 4 weeks each summer Nighthawk Ranch is a non-
profit camp for kids ages 10 to 18 battling cancer. The goal of
Nighthawk is to provide a safe and healing environment where these
brave children are able to enjoy themselves, build up their self-
esteem and look towards a brighter future.
Each camper is responsible for looking after a horse for the week, the
same horse they will learn to ride. Kathryn Ory, who volunteers her
time as the camp photographer, noted that "most of the campers
start the week a little standoffish towards each other, and
somewhat shy around the horses. By the time the last day comes,
they are totally different children! It is amazing to see the changes in
them. I am so fortunate to witness it first hand."
Justin Dunn runs the equine therapy program. The horses that the kids care for and ride are all owned and trained
by Justin. In addition to caring for their horse and learning to ride, campers get to experience other activities, like
building log cabins, crafts, ropes courses, archery, and camping.
Tom and Dorothy Evans started the camp to provide a unique high mountain working ranch experience that
encourages achievement through a variety of activities. They fund the camp out of their own pockets with the help
of donations and the generosity of volunteers. There is never a cost to the camp attendees and their families.
Nighthawk Ranch is so much more than a summer camp, it's a truly memorable experience for children and their
families
