Additional Information About Blue Mountain Ranch Summer Camp
Blue Mountain Ranch is a third-generation owned and operated summer camp that is located just outside Florissant, CO. For the past 76 years BMR has been enriching the lives of children from across the country and globe. BMR is a co-educational camp for children ages 7-15 years old who are placed in cabins based on their age. Our campers gain independence and confidence through the ability to choose their daily activities. We encourage our campers to try as many activities as possible, including an activity they have never tried before. Campers should leave camp having learned a new skill. With our emphasis being participation over competition we provide a welcoming environment for all children. Blue Mountain Ranch is a fun safe place for kids to be kids and disconnect from technology and reconnect with childhood in the great Colorado outdoors.
