Create Your Own Event at the A/U Ranches
Did you know that the A/U Ranches is open during the non-summer months? Some times of the year you can pretty much have the place to yourself, apart from a few deer! It’s called 100 Elk Events at the A/U Ranches, and we are ready to host your next corporate retreat, wedding, family reunion – even a small family vacation.

Living Generously: Confident Giving and Giving’s Reward
Wherever we have lived, we have contributed time and treasure to institutions we believed made our communities better. We have many communities, but one focus: youth and education.
Adults, teens connect over DiscoveryBound Boston weekend
What does it look like when you combine a TMC College Summit, a DiscoveryBound (DB) Outreach National Annual event, and a DiscoveryBound Compass fall retreat in Boston?

Living Generously: When One Conversation Changes Everything
Rusty’s enthusiasm for giving is palpable. “Don’t be a hoarder!” he says in his affable Texas drawl. “Only five percent of Christians shed the light!” He heard this “don’t be a hoarder” comment from a minister while working together in the prison ministry in Austin and has adopted the phrase as another way of saying, “live generously.”

Making time: Ways to give back, get involved

Wranglers reunite through horses, friendship and living generously
“This was a great time, like coming home again – a great meeting with old friends and making new ones,” says alumnus Don Gregory. “I saw firsthand how well the horse program has been improved and upgraded. It was a pleasure to ride up the mountain, after about 30 years. There was lots of renewal of amazing feelings and inspiration unique to the A/U Ranches in that beautiful, familiar setting in the Colorado Rockies.”
