Respite Weekends
Down Home Ranch offers six Weekend Camps - once a month between September 2008 and February 2009. These are open to ages 13 years and older with mild to moderate mental disabilities. These weekends will be an opportunity for the campers to spend time with old friends, make new friends, and enjoy an awesome weekend of fun!
Weekend Camps are from 5:00pm on Friday to 3:00pm on Sunday. All weekend
campers and counselors stay in our beautiful Post Oak and Hickory Lodges.
Respite weekends include favorite Ranch Camp activities, along with
fishing, kayaking, BB guns, crafts, games, swimming, karaoke and more.

Though this video is about our Summer Ranch Camp, the activities at the Weekend Respite Camps are quite similar.
