Sunday August 24th was a celebration of what can happen when a group of people decide that they are going to change the world one child at a time. The dedication of the Karen Roth Home was one of six eventual homes that we Will have at the Ranch.
The Ranch was fortunate to have many of Karen’s Family travel from all over the country to share the special day with the community of volunteers at the Ranch.
It was an emotional day as people shared what the ranch meant to them. In addition to speeches given by Executive Director Ron Coppess, Board President Steve Barnum and Ranch Co-Founder and Board Secretary Richard Coppess the Ranch was also fortunate to have State Representatives Brian Calley,(87th District) and Rick Jones (71st District) share their support for the Ranch. Brian Calley and Rick Jones represent the area from where Sunny Crest will be getting the Ranchers from. They shared with our guests our Sunny Crest will be able to fill a very much needed void in the area and help to give kids and parents a chance for a better life.
Randy Roth, the husband of Karen, also shared with us his thanks to all of those who donated their time talent and treasures to help accomplish the reality of the Sunny Crest Youth Ranch. I think that Ron Coppess said it best when he said:
“All of this happened because Karen Roth and the Foundation took a chance on the SCYR. Will people remember your good looks, your wealth, the position that you have held in 100 years? No, but they will remember is you made a difference in the life of a child. Karen Roth will be remembered!”
Thank you to all those who helped making yet another successful event at the Sunny Crest Youth Ranch.
