At MMR we strive to create a very unique environment. An environment that is contrary to contemporary culture. Where technology is traded for all-present conversations and authentic friendships. Where wholesome fun is had, and genuine connections are made without the help aid of any substance. Where there is no pressure or expectancy for romantic relationships and everyone is viewed as family.  Our mission and our commitment are at the heart of what we do at Mountain Meadow Ranch and should be taken into special consideration when seeking employment with our family. We want to move away from the norm and fight for greatness. We hope to engage in the art of being present with one another and to grow to be the best versions of ourselves. That is our heart. 

Camp is an intensive short-lived time, filled with kids that need us to be present in every moment. We want staff that is willing to give themselves to the kids and experience living a unique lifestyle.

If you seek a summer of fun alone, we encourage you to look elsewhere. To say, "camp is fun," is an understatement; fun is a given. MMR isn't just a summer camp; it’s a place where fears are conquered and identities are found. It’s a place where genuine relationships are born and flourish. We are growth, unplugged, wholesome adventure. We practice stewardship, inclusiveness, empathy, encouragement, and integrity. As we celebrate authenticity, we help each other as a family, find joy in our uniqueness, and encourage all to dance outside their comfort zones. We believe all this starts with our counselors. It all starts with YOU!


General Description

Fishing at Mountain Meadow Ranch is a time of patience, bonding, and sometimes the excitement of catching a fish! Campers fish from the edge of our lagoon with barbless hooks and unscented lures. Along with the goal of catching a fish, you will also be instructing campers in how to tie knots,  cast properly, handle hooks, appreciate nature, practice patience, and more.
