Springtime Ranch Camp is a summer camp for boys and girls, ages 7 to 12. The camp is located on a working cattle ranch south of Ulm, Montana. Sally Shortridge is the camp's director. The Shortridge family began ranching in Montana in 1914. The ranch produces grass-alfalfa hay. The Red Angus Cattle and herd thrives along a wooded stretch of prime Missouri River bottom land.
