Having a camp in the West is not a fly-by-night dream. It is a goal that was first envisioned by the founder of the Bill Rice Ranch, Bill Rice II, in the 1960s. For two decades, different properties were considered before the Lord gave us the initial property in Flagstaff in 1989.\u00a0We needed our new permanent location in Williams for a better atmosphere and more durable facilities.<\/span><\/p>\nOur\u00a0<\/span>master plan<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>includes many areas of development including the main cabins site, larger buildings such as an auditorium, dining hall, and recreation building. The site plan also includes a possible separate junior camp facility and a lodge (see Topo Map). We have\u00a0<\/span>already started utilizing the facility<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>and will expand as the Lord and local officials and site conditions allow.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t
Status<\/h5>\n\t\t\t\tCurrent Status on Construction<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nAfter the purchase of the Williams property, many churches volunteered manpower and\/or finances to put up camp buildings. The Lord blessed us with sixteen buildings including the main camp cabins. All infrastructure is completed to support these buildings, and we have conducted camp on the property for more than a decade. We continually make minor improvements to the property while working on Phase Two as the Lord provides. See \"Phases\" for additional info.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t
