Bar U Ranch - Calgary Kick off Field Trip

Roots families are invited to join us at Bar U Ranch for a full day of fun!

This Bar U Ranch program demonstrates a broad range of educational themes integrating historical, cultural, social,  political, environmental and economic themes. It will be divided into three segments:

1. Belly of the Bar U, to experience the variety of methods practiced for self- sufficiency.
2. A creek side trek to learn about land management practices to help sustain the ecosystem.
3. Round Up Camp to learn how cowboys lived and worked on the range through storytelling.

It is important to dress for the weather.  All students should have jackets, hats, gloves, sturdy shoes or boots and rainwear.  In warm weather we suggest water, sunscreen, hats and insect repellent.

Due to potential hazards on the ranch site, including livestock, a creek and moving machinery, students must be supervised at all times.
