Day Camps

Our camps are a blend of riding lessons and the after school program. The emphasis is on safe and fun learning. They run Monday through Friday, 7:30-11:30 a.m. Mornings tend to be cooler in the summer. We start early because campers help feed the horses. Next we groom and tack up the horses/ponies. After riding we untack and put the horses out. After washing up and changing, we have a snack. We may work on a notebook with a daily theme. Camps are kept small with four campers, and an assistant is on hand to keep everyone safe.

First timer camps are for those with little or no riding experience. We ride one at a time so that those needing assistance are safe and those with more experience are not bored. We ride English, Western and bareback. One day is spent on balance lessons and another on items needed for a first horse. Other topics covered are tack, colors, parts and breeds.

Other camps have game themes, crafts, horse show preparation, and trail riding. These are geared toward beginner and advanced beginner riders.

The "Try Something New" camp is for the competent rider. We will travel to other riding stables to ride saddle seat, different breeds, trails and driving.

Please contact June for weeks available and get ready to hear about all the fun stuff we did from your child.
