2012 Events Are Up

All, 

Our 2012 events are posted and ready.  As of now, all of the CIP Tours are ready to view. They feature trips to Hawaii, Yosemite National Park and NASCAR.  The Leisure Club events are ready to view and feature Yoga, Bowling, Barbeques and Boomers.  The Kids Club events are also ready to be seen.  Additionally, The Ranch workdays are available and these days are open to the general public.  This is the best way to get to envision The Ranch; it's current state, it's potential and all of the good that will come from it.  We invite you to come see what's going on and get involved.  2012 is going to be a GIANT year for UCP of San Luis Obispo County and we want everybody join.

We want to welcome you to The Ranch.  Please take a moment to view this video and see what 'The Ranch' is all about.
