I used to live there between the ages of 10 to 15. Each house has two to three bathrooms for the boys to use. They have two toilet stalls and individual showers for privacy. The bedrooms usually have 2 to three beds with separate dressers for the boys to store their possessions. Each Wednesday and Sunday night, the residents and the boys join for church service at their on site chapel, and every Sunday morning, the individual cottages will take their boys to separate churches for morning services. The boys will attend public schools in Palatka, riding to school on the ranches private buses. The boys ranch has their own Boys Scouts Troop (if I remember correctly, its Troop 337). This troop has produced several Eagle Scouts. They have their own access to the St. John river, and host a bass fishing tournament for the boys where professional anglers bring their personal boats and take the boys in groups of 2 to 3 for 3 hours on the river. All in all, I enjoyed the 5 years I lived there!
How much does it cost
Hi Mary, We have only been to the boy's ranch during music festivals and such, so we really weren't aware of what their routines are. We did encounter a lot of young men helping in the concession stands and helping out with some last minute and work like mending fences, litter control, etc. They all seemed very happy and eager to help! However, I have no idea of their day to day lives, or their shower situation! I hope this helps! .
The boys have many activities they can participate in.
