Don't miss this fun-packed evening that benefits desert preservation, wildlife rehabilitation, the Desert Foothills Scenic Drive, and Rotary charities.

It will take a lot of volunteers to create a great evening for guests at the 13th annual Cookout at the Ranch. Prior to the event we need volunteers for to help obtain merchant donations. The day of the event we need volunteers to help with setup. During the event we need volunteers to help things run smoothly. And, the following day we need help with cleanup. Everybody will have fun at Cookout at the Ranch, including the volunteers.  Watch this space for additional information about the event, co-sponsored by Outback Steakhouse, Desert Foothills Cookouts, MacDonald's Ranch, and  The Peak magazine.
