Ready, set – go! This summer, every mile makes a difference. Walk, run, swim, or roll to help support the A/U Ranches and keep camp running strong through 2026!

Choose your challenge:
- Southwoods Challenge – three miles
- Denny Creek Challenge – 15 miles
- Conqueror’s Challenge – 44 miles
- Unlimited Challenge – compete for the highest mileage!

Participants will receive an exclusive patch, and two grand prizes will be awarded. 🎉

Not doing mileage? You can still support campers by making a donation. Every gift helps care for the A/U Ranches facilities and grounds so campers can keep exploring, growing, and making lifelong memories.

We have been reading this week’s Christian Science Bible Lesson on “Mortals and Immortals” this week on our Zoom calls with our seasonal staff. We’ve been talking about how God renews us and what it means to be God’s “beloved.”

And how does Christian Science help us understand our true nature as God knows us?

Swipe for a few favorite citations from this week’s Bible Lesson.

Trailmarks 2025 is here!

Our annual report celebrates 70 years of impact, growth, and community for Adventure Unlimited. Let's take a look back on a special year.

As part of Adventure Unlimited's continued growth, we have embraced our strategic goal to serve more adults, and have increased participant days by 1,286 across existing and new adult programs, representing a 29% growth rate over previous years. What a way to celebrate our 70th anniversary!

At the A/U Ranches, we were especially excited to launch new experiences like the first-ever CS Homeschool Families Retreat which invited homeschool families to connect with each other through learning opportunities, typical camp fun, and time for deep conversations.

Read more about other updates from 2025 here: bit.ly/au-trailmarks25. We’re grateful for everyone who helped make last year possible!
