DAY CAMP

Day Camp is for rising Kinder, First and Second Grade girls


 Monday -Thursday, 9:00 - 4:30; Friday 9:00 - Noon

Rocky River Ranch is located in the heart of the Texas hill country in the quaint village of Wimberley on the Blanco River. RRR has been growing independent girls since 1953 and continues that tradition with our Day Camp. Day campers will get a taste of the same camp magic as our overnight campers while experiencing special programs just for them. They will create memories that will last a life time led by our highly trained staff. Campers will be introduced to our long- held traditions, songs, classes, and games while preparing them for overnight camp. 

The format of each week will be the same and the daily schedule will not change. In addition, during Sessions 1 and 2 the girls will be doing the same crafts and theme day and during Sessions 3 and 4 the girls will be doing the same crafts and theme day. While we know each session will be filled with new friends and fun experiences, we just wanted to make sure you have all of this information in case you feel that your daughter will not enjoy the repeat activities and the same basic schedule from week to week.

Rocky River Ranch experience

 

I am still amazed and in awe of the subtle and mysterious way that simple activities and experiences weave together to leave an indelible impression of love ... confidence ... appreciation. They seem so simple there in the moment ... the singing of camp songs, Friendship Circle at the end of an evening program, the Cowpoke/Wrangler drawing, saddling a horse for the first time, scooting down the rapids ... but each song, with each tug on the halter rope, with each stroke of the canoe oar, with each ring of "Goodnight, campers!" a new brush of color is being painted on her childhood experience. From those "colors" spring forth amazing women as evidenced by the many remarkable people that now call themselves Rocky River alumni.

Mama Knolk — what a wonderful and gentle lady. She always wanted the best for us and for us to be our best.

‒  Jeanette Brian Lawrence Years at camp: 1960s

We still can't believe it has been 50 years since my mother, Mama Knolk, started RRR. We are so proud that it is still the same as she built it and still has the same spirit upon which it was founded. Our children and grandchildren have had the wonderful opportunity to attend camp and we all can still sing some of the songs when we get together. May the spirit of Mama Knolk stay with all that have attended RRR.

I would not be the person I have become today if it were not for Skeet and Sandy. One of the biggest lessons I ever learned in life was from Sandy — I fell off a horse and Sandy made me get right back on. I had no idea what impact that lesson would mean to my life, but I have to say it has become one of the most valuable.

This was my very first camp I ever went to and let me tell you it was the best! I only wish I had found out about it earlier so I could have spent more than just one year there. Y'all are an amazing camp and I hope you keep running for another 50 years.

‒  Claire Tilton Years at camp: 2002

I have said for years that RRR made me the person that I am today. Actually it wasn’t just RRR, but also the counselors that shaped my experiences and helped me be the best I could be. I learned to problem solve, lead others and to be a leader others wanted to follow. I learned to do my part and that I can do anything I decided to do. I learned to say 'I can' a lot more than 'I cannot.' I learned to co-exist with others which helps me to this day. As a young girl I learned what others around me now in their 30s still do not know. I learned to take care of and respect myself, respect others and the world around me.
