On August 13th, join us for a Mountain Bikefest weekend! Wild Rockies and Jug Mountain Ranch will be bringing a Short Track XC and kids ride to McCall along with a whole line-up of fun events to make this a weekend event not to miss!

Racing starts with the Short Track XC at 11am and wraps up with the kids STXC at 1:30pm. For the little ones not racing, a special Kids Camp will be offered starting at 10:30am to free up mom and dad for a few hours. Bring everyone back together for lunch after the racing with a special menu on the Jug Mountain Ranch Clubhouse patio.

KIDS CAMP: The Children’s House in McCall is excited to offer a two hour Kids Camp on race day. The camp will begin at 10:30am and end at 12:30pm. We have a fun nature walk planned where kids will be able to burn off some of that energy and also see some of the racing action! Pre-Registration is required. To pre-register kids for the Kids Camp please email jmr@jugmountainranch.com. Cost is $10 per child and kids potty trained to 10 years of age are welcome! Space is limited to 20 kids, so don’t wait to book! Contact us today!

MAKE IT A WEEKEND: We are excited to offer racers and spectators alike the opportunity to stay overnight in McCall and take advantage of the fabulous summer weather. Check out the Rustic Inn for a great lodging option. This hotel has been recently remodeled and is just a few minute walk to Salmon River Brewery! Or, if you are looking for a place to stay close to the lake, Hotel McCall offers lakefront lodging at a great price! While you are in town, don’t forget to stop by The HUB Mountain House to grab a coffee and the inside scoop on all of the great places to recreate in McCall!

SCHEDULE OF EVENTS:

Jug Mountain Ranch trails have a great combination of single and double track with terrain designed for all skill levels from beginners to experts! Trail maps are available on our website at www.jugmountainranch.com or at the Clubhouse Restaurant. Trails are free of charge and we encourage you to wear proper safety equipment as trail use is at your own risk! Stop by the Clubhouse after your ride and help support trail maintenance (yes, we promise to serve you even if you are covered in trail dust!).

The 16th Annual Shepherd’s Home Golf Tournament, Dinner, and Auction is scheduled for Friday, August 12th at Jug Mountain Ranch! The Shepherd’s Home was founded in 1998 and continues to provide a safe, family home for children in need. Each year, this wonderful event provides the Shepherd’s Home with a large portion of the funds needed to operate each year. Proceeds will go directly to feed, clothe, support, and provide a loving home for children in the area.

This year’s event is scheduled to kick off with a 4-person scramble golf tournament followed by dinner and both a silent and live auction. Not a golfer? No worries! We invite you to join us at 5pm for the dinner and auction portion!

As adults, we tend to be a bit hesitant to try new sports. Maybe it is the fear that we will look completely uncoordinated. Maybe it is the fear that we will pull a muscle. Whatever the reason, here is a bit of inspiration to help you get over that fear and try something new! Jug Mountain recently hosted a Junior Clinic and we can only say…WOW! These kids are amazing! And if the pictures aren’t proof enough, the range cart driver can attest to the superior skills of this group after getting pelted with strategically aimed golf balls on the last day of the clinic. Talk about fast learners!

Our next Junior Golf Clinic is scheduled for August 10th. This one-hour program begins at 10am and is just $15 per person!

And if you want a chance to hone your golf skills so that you, too, can hit the range cart with precision (and not be outdone by your children!), contact our amazing Pro, Dustin Ames, for a private lesson at 208.634.5072!
