Lily Yoder

Kid Supervisor
Hometown:McVeytown, PA

Lily recently completed a semester at Slippery Rock University before joining us for her first summer at the ranch last year. She’s back for her third season, and we’re so excited to have her again heading up our brand new 3-5-year-old children’s program! In high school she played soccer, field b-ball, ran track and won the Sportsmanship Award…and was a 4-H member. She enjoys being outdoors, staying busy and learning new things as well as making new friends. Sounds like she’s in the right place! She also enjoys spending time with her family.
