THE EL DORADO RANCH WELCOMES THE SCORE BAJA 500 El Dorado Ranch is pleased to welcome the 52nd BFGoodrich Tires SCORE Baja 500 Presented by 4 Wheel Parts to San Felipe September 22-27, 2020. SCORE has run the San Felipe 250 Race since 1982. But due to Covid19 SCORE had to rearrange its race schedule and the SCORE San Felipe 250 will be held February 9-14, 2021. San Felipe is a small fishing village on the Sea of Cortez, with the 10,000 foot San Pedro Martir mountains in the background and has a population of approximately 25,000 including about 5,000 expats. The SCORE races are a very important to this small town as they generate the greatest annual economic impact which many of the small businesses depend on. The race brings tourism and promotes San Felipe in the media. SCORE has certainly helped put San Felipe “on the map”. The racers also give back to the San Felipe community by donating money or items to the needy, they support local orphanages, and contribute to local non-profits. And they stay in San Felipe hotels and rental homes and eat in local restaurants. Located just north of San Felipe is El Dorado Ranch, a 35,000 acre, privately owned getaway community for those seeking escape and adventure. The Ranch is a master-planned community offering affordable retirement and vacation properties. The Ranch is also environmentally developed to protect the natural landscape and wildlife. Only 50 percent of the entire Ranch will ever be developed. American developer, Pat Butler, bought the Ranch in 1994 and there are over 7,000 owners. Prior to buying El Dorado Ranch, Mr. Butler was an executive and minority owner of Affinity Group, which owns the Good Sam Club, Coast to Coast, Camping World and other holdings. Prior to that he was an international vice president with Marriott Corp. El Dorado Ranch owners enjoy amenities such as a championship 18-hole golf course; 5 tennis courts; community pools; a pickleball center; activities program; a pristine beach; bars and restaurants and on-site medical clinic. And there are many more activities and attractions nearby such as fishing and off-roading. Properties available at the Ranch include solar lots starting at $7,500, underground electric lot starting at $23,000, golf course lots starting at $40,000, and condominiums starting at $250,000.
