GARDEN CITY, UTAH – For the fathers who love to camp with their kids, Conestoga Ranch invites families to take Dad glamping this Father’s Day weekend at Bear Lake, Utah’s premiere luxury camping destination. The ranch has lined up a program of music, competitions, and even a free barbecue dinner for Dad to celebrate fathers all weekend long in Garden City.
“We know how much time and effort many fathers have put in to taking their families on camping adventures, so we have lined up a weekend where camping is made easy as a way of giving back to Dad,” says Tom Hendrick, one of five partners who opened the glamping resort to rave reviews last summer.
Father’s Day weekend festivities kick off on June 17 with a Western Barbecue at the resort’s Campfire Grill Restaurant. The barbecue dinner is complimentary for fathers. The menu features barbecue ribs and chicken, hamburgers, hot dogs, a selection of sides, and s’mores for dessert. The price per person is $24 for adults and $16 for kid under 12 (tax and gratuity is additional). Live entertainment will be provided by Sam DeLeeuw, a poet, humorist and emcee.
Following a fun Saturday of adventure and recreation at Bear Lake, Conestoga Ranch invites fathers to take each other on in some friendly competition with a a bag toss and ping pong tournament from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. Winners will earn prizes from Conestoga Ranch’s General Store.
