Horse Programs

HORSE CAMP

Grades 5-12

Campers will spend two hours per day with riding specialists and their assigned horse. Campers learn how to mount, dismount and groom. While getting comfortable around horses, you’ll learn basic control of a horse at a walk and trot in the arena and on the trail. Campers will help feed, care for and clean up after the horses during the week. (Sessions 3-8)

Please note for all horse camps:  If you have requested a cabin-mate they also need to be in the horse camp program. Campers must have long jeans and boots or sturdy shoes with ½”-¾” heels for riding. (Consider borrowing boots or buying a used pair if you do not have your own.) Camp provides riding helmets.
