About the provider

The C Lazy U Ranch Children’s Program dates back to 1949. Mackenzie Brenneman is the Children’s Program Manager. Pre-employment screening includes reference checks and background checks, and counselors receive extensive horsemanship evaluation and comprehensive training. All counselors are required to take a Basic Water Safety course from the American Red Cross and have current CPR and First Aid certification. The ranch says at least one senior Children’s Program supervisor is on duty at all times, and Mackenzie volunteers for Grand County Search and Rescue.
