IT'S HERE!
We are so thrilled to announce the arrival of our new website.
With thanks to Jim Reggio and Charlie Wells of Fusestarter, we have a new look and some fun new tools that will help us share Ghost Ranch news. It's a scrolling site with lots of fun below the fold. 
As with any new technology tool the site is a work in progress and evolving so thank you for your patience as we continue to update workshop info and photo galleries, etc.  Please let us know what you like and where you might need a little more help finding something by using the comment form found at the bottom of every page.
  • There is a turquoise tab at the top of the page that lets you click into the latest messages from Paul Fogg and staff as it relates to re-opening and other Covid-19 resources.
  • The Timeline tool under "ABOUT" is a work in progress and we'll be adding content and tidbits from our beloved journal and other newsletters.
  • Under the "CONNECT BUTTON" you'll find our new blog where you can search for content by category or read the latest entries. We'll be sharing messages and content from instructors. Let us know if you have something you'd like to share with our community. Coming soon, a prayer list will also live on the page.
  • Workshops listed begin with the week of July 12. Staff is working to contact instructors regarding the status of workshops prior to that week and then following up with registered participants regarding their options. Again, thank you for your patience.

Celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day
Love Letters and Expressions to Ghost Ranch
Yesterday we celebrated the anniversary of the day that 20 million Americans both young and old, celebrated the first Earth Day seeking urgent action to protect our Mother Earth. 
50 Years later, as we do every day at Ghost Ranch, we celebrate God's gifts of mountains and plains, flora and fauna, that feed our hearts, minds and souls. The Spirit at Ghost Ranch is strong and we are ever mindful of our need to feed, nurture and protect this land that has been entrusted to us.
In this 50th year of celebrating Earth Day throughout April and the coming months, Ghost Ranch is inviting its friends to compose a Love Note or Love Expression which shares how the "Place" of Ghost Ranch has impacted you. 
 
Maybe you want to express gratitude or share a memory through poetry or prose. As an artist, maybe you want to create a piece and share a photo of your creation. Please feel free to be creative and reflective. Short, simple expressions can be added to the blog comments at the very bottom of the page. For longer messages and images, please send them to info@ghostranch.org.
 
Visit the Earth Day Love Letters blog page to view our first entries shared by Liz, Diane and Tom Arenberg. 
 
If you wish to include a donation in support of Ghost Ranch with your letter, a form is provided on the blog page below the photo gallery.
 
 
 
LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING YOU SOON!
