Last week, they moved to Cody, Wyoming, to start a new chapter in their lives.

The staff of Thunder Ranch wishes to congratulate them on this giant change and look forward to many more long years and new adventures for them.

To Clint & Heidi –

We wish to thank you for your combined nearly 80 years of dedication to the students, the Ranch, and the doctrine that is Thunder Ranch. The effect you have had on people’s safety, mindset, and skill is without peer. We have all collectively learned valuable lessons on what to teach and how to teach it, as well as countless lessons on life, how to treat people, and generally on being good human beings. We are all better for it.

We will all miss the early mornings getting ready for the day, and the late nights after hours, sitting around the table and living room laughing, telling stories and jokes, having some of the best times of our lives…all together. But mostly we will miss them…the personal pieces of advice from Clint. Heidi being the team mom making sure we are taken care of and as comfortable as possible while we work. Cokes, Gatorades, crazy dogs and cats, and sleeping in front of the fireplace.

We love you guys and miss you already.

To the Students –

We appreciate you more than you know. You all make us better, and we learn from every one of you as much as you learn from us. We are still here and are committed to seeing Thunder Ranch continue to grow and refine the foundation and structure that Clint and Heidi provided, and to go forward long after we are all gone from this earth. We have had some great years together and will be here teaching for many more years. This legacy is here to stay.

Thunder Ranch is still staffed with the same people who have been here for many years, with a couple of newer faces here and there. We have the best team possible for the future, and look forward to seeing you in the classroom and on the range deck.
