TUCSON – The Therapeutic Ranch for Animals and Kids, TRAK, added more summer camp sessions.

TRAK originally offered nine week-long summer camp sessions, but recently added three more. .

Scott Tilley, the Executive Director at TRAK, said it is a hands-on camp for kids ages 5 to 12.

He said during camp, kids will horseback ride, sort food for animals, do arts and crafts and experience all aspects of life on a ranch.

“We call it our TRAK magic," said Tilley. "The animals just have a way of making people open up and making difficult things a little bit easier to deal with.”

There are more than 70 animals on the ranch.

New camp sessions were added on the following dates:

• July 3-7
• August 7-11
• August 14-18
