Over 35 years ago, Mark and Amey Grubbs brought together a group to create an organization whose mission would be to preserve the history and expand the knowledge of America’s dude ranches. This organization would share the story of the ranches that opened their doors to guests over the last one hundred fifty years, both celebrating the past and advancing the future of the dude ranching industry.

The Dude Ranch Foundation deeply thanks and celebrates our many supporters:
