About the Chauncey Ranch History

Tom Chauncey is recognized as one of Arizona’s broadcasting pioneers, and he is known nationally as a figure in the field of communication. At the age of 13, Tom Chauncey hopped a train and left his hometown. After many years as an entrepreneur, he followed the call of broadcasting and purchased a radio station, later known as KOOL radio-television. Simultaneously Mr. Chauncey has established a name for himself in the Hereford cattle and Arabian Horse market, following in the footsteps of his great-grandfather. Over the years, many cattle and horses have been raised at Chauncey Ranch.

Ten years ago, our CEO was struck with the magic of Chauncey Ranch when dropping his daughter off at camp at Chauncey Ranch. That magic has stuck with him and his daughter for a decade.
