Special Reminder - Join
Sandy at Rancho La
Puerta for a LIVE remote
program on March 5, 2006
|
Rancho La Puerta,
founded by Edmond
and Deborah Szekely,
is the original
destination fitness
resort and spa
family-founded,
-owned and
-operated. Todays
guests enjoy the
very best resort spa
experience, shaped
by expertise
developed over 65
years.
Each week, some 150
guests share 3,000
acres of mountains
and meadows beneath
3,885 Mount
Kuchumaa. The peak
straddles the
U.S.-Mexico border,
and Native Americans
consider its slopes
and summit a sacred
place so much so
that it was the
first geographic
feature in the U.S.
to be named a
National Historic
Site by the
Department of
Interior based on
spiritual
significance. |
