Resident Camp

Welcome to Tomahawk Ranch Tomahawk Ranch is our beautiful farm property located in Bailey. Tomahawk Ranch is now offering a homesteading experience where girls will gain a better understanding of food cycles, gardening skills and have the chance to work on our small animal farm. Discover self-sufficient living through raising animals and food, re-using, repairing and recycling household objects, and reducing our need for natural resources. Although horses are no longer on-site at Tomahawk, many programs offer horseback riding as part of their activities at local stables. Tomahawk Ranch offers many activities, including, but not limited to: archery, crafts, greenhouse and gardening, small animal farm, drama, hikes, orienteering and camp songs. Many activities are weather dependent. When this happens, staff work tirelessly to provide alternative activities/times for activities for campers. Director: Monica Gray, monica.gray@gscolorado.org Note: Prices for this section are listed as: $Early Bird (total fees paid by April 30)/$Regular Price (total fees paid on May 1 or after) or $500/$550.
