Daily schedule — arrival, start, and end of Youth Horsemanship Camp
The registration office opens at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday with camp starting officially with Sunday dinner at 6:00 p.m. Camp ends after the awards program, which starts at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday. Parents are welcome to attend the awards program.
Community — campers return year after year and form lasting friendships
The first two camps seem to be in high demand every year. Of the four regular horsemanship camps, the two in July are typically smaller, which means more riding time and more one-on-one instruction, so keep that in mind when you're making your plans.
Setting — location at the base of the Manti-Lasal Mountains
God has provided us with a beautiful ranch just outside the small rural town of Ferron, Utah, at the base of the Manti-Lasal Mountains and just minutes from the desert canyons east of us. Ferron is located on Highway 10 just thirty miles north of Interstate 70 and forty miles south of Price.
The ranch is 260 acres. We also have National Forest Service permits for summer grazing in the mountains for our cattle. The 777 Ranch sits at about 6,000 ft. The mountains to the west of us where we do some activities rise to over 11,000 ft.
The 777 Ranch is a ministry of Rocky Mountain West Baptist Mission. This is a Christian camp. At the campfire on Friday nights, it was evident that the campers enjoyed the messages and getting to know each speaker. Our speakers faithfully share God's Word as the only reliable source of truth to meet spiritual needs in each person's life.
Lasting impact — graduates reflect on growth beyond horsemanship
Camp is more than just the horses, as each testified. Our prayer is that each of our graduates will remember more than what they've learned in training horses.
The Lodge: A three-story log facility featuring four bedrooms (two with private bathrooms and two with a shared handicap accessible bathroom), laundry area, spacious kitchen and dining area, living room, meeting area, and handicap ramp.
The Three Seven's Ranch is a working ranch and Christian camp designed to help young people develop a good work ethic and strong character, to provide quality horsemanship instruction for both kids and adults, and to offer programs to strengthen the family. The theme 'using the outside of a horse to develop the inside of a man' describes much of the ranch program.
Two guy and two girl modern bunkhouses accommodate forty-four people sharing a large bathroom with several individual showers, toilets, and sinks on each side. Both sides are equipped with heaters and air-conditioners.
Food — grass-fed, hormone-free beef raised on the ranch
A new addition to our camp store will be the sale of grass and hay fed, hormone-free, and antibiotic-free ground beef from the cattle we raise and butcher for campers to eat. The packages are two pounds and are packed by a certified butcher in Castle Dale.
Our home-cooked meals are served family-style most of the time. Though we don't cater to special diets, you will find something to enjoy at every meal. In fact, most campers rave about the food. For special dietary restrictions or food allergies, please contact us.
Ranch Report — quarterly newsletter parents and supporters can sign up for
The 777 Ranch Report is issued quarterly to give an update of the camps that have been held and what is currently going on at the ranch. To sign up to receive the Ranch Report, visit the website.
