YMCA Roberts Ranch

YMCA Roberts Ranch 1,100 acres of Texas Hill Country for the benefit and enjoyment of all: Where Youth Development meets Land Stewardship 🤝 Mr. Roberts’ vision.

In the late 1990’s Roberts Ranch was generously donated to the Y by the late Bob Roberts of Comfort. Roberts envisioned the ranch to be a place where families and children could gather to explore the outdoors in a beautiful Hill Country setting. The pristine habitat, native plants and wildlife make the ranch the perfect laboratory for learning about and exploring nature. For years, the property ha

s served hundreds of children through an outdoor education program sponsored by Texas Parks and Wildlife. Now, the YMCA is hoping to greatly increase the number of children and families served at the ranch through new programming intended to fulfill Mr. Programs offered at the ranch include conservation and stewardship workshops, school groups, youth groups, group camping, guided hikes, fishing, and wildlife study.

Roberts Ranch brought wildlife education out to San Antonio for the first ever ¡Viva Bosque! This family-friendly fiesta event celebrated trees, birds, and everything in between at the ! 🪅 🌱

Children and families participated in a hands-on educational activity used to teach about biological adaptations and how a bird’s beak shape determines the food it can eat. By using common household tools to represent different beaks, participants “foraged” for various food items.

Thank you for letting us join the fun!

Branching out with photography!

Over 60 students visited Roberts Ranch in March! One common activity we asked all our students to participate in was photographing the ranch from their perspective.

Through a combination of art, science and observation, children explored the natural world through the lens. Here are a few of their photographs.
