How To Go To Crooked Creek For ONLY $150

On June 14th, 2013...125 High schoolers from Northwest, Page, Grimsley, GDS, Western, and Northern will jump on three coach buses and head west to the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. There they will join 500 high schoolers for a life changing week at Crooked Creek. I've been to Crooked Creek Ranch a dozen times and am convinced it's one of the most heavenly places on earth. It's a multi-million dollar resort designed especially for teenagers as a place to encounter the majesty of God. 

It's guaranteed to be one of the best weeks of your life!  I mean, they even carry your luggage for you from the bus to your room. It's like a cruise ship on land. It's like a movie come true in real life. It's like nothing I can describe. Just trust me. I've taken literally thousands of high schoolers to Young Life camp over the past 15 years and it's an experience like no other. 

What's There To Do At Crooked Creek?

Breath-taking views while on horseback

Horseback Riding
CCR has 45 horses who are trained to carry beginner riders all the way to the experts! The trail ride has wide open views of the ski slopes of Winter Park Resort and the Continental Divide. You can also take our morning breakfast ride across the Crooked Creek Trail to enjoy a wrangler breakfast that'll make ya write home to your mama. 

The Blob

Waterfront Activities
The blob, the lake, waterslides, the pool, a 150 person jacuzzi. In the summers of Colorado, the mountains might still have snow up top, but the proximity to the sun makes the waterfront activities a highlight of every day. 

Mountain Bikes 

CCR has top-of-the-line mountain bikes and each group takes a ride that suited to the group’s riding level. They have trails for all ability levels, so don't worry if you haven't been on a bike in a while!

Ridge Runners

More fun than a mouthful of dirt, which is what you'll have after racing on the dirt track if you don't wear a bandana.
