Back for it’s second year, camp is for riders of any age and any level.  Campers will have the opportunity to learn and perform a theatrical show that includes scenes on horseback and on the ground.  They will also have the opportunity to make their own props, sets and costumes to use during the performance!  The performance will be on Friday the 12th – time to be determined. This camp was a huge hit last year!!!  Camp will be limited to 12 riders.

July 22 to 26 – Horsemanship Camp:   9am to 3pm  Monday thru Thursday and 9am to 12noon on Friday

This amazing camp is for “horse crazy” students 7 years and older.  Camp will be geared to any level rider who wants to work on their horsemanship skills.   We will work on both mounted and unmounted skills-from grooming, show prep, first aid and bathing a horse to riding.   Also included will be classroom time, barn management, including feeding and stall cleaning.   This will be a fairly intense week for students who wish to improve all areas of their horsemanship.  Riders are expected to groom, clean up after and feed “their” horse for the week.  Also included in the week will be a farm project.    Expect to make lots of 2 legged friends and one very special 4 legged friend.   Riding time will include at least a 1 hour lesson each day.   We will also play games on horses, participate in unmounted games and enjoy horse related crafts and activities.   Horsemanship camp is suggested for students who may want to enter our work program, and riders who can’t seem to get enough of horses.   Friday am will be devoted to preparing your horses for a riding demonstration for family members at 11:00am.  Camp is limited to 12 riders.  Group will be split to ride.  Helmets are available to rent ($10 for the week) if you do not have your own.

August 12 to 16:  Advanced Camp:  9am to 4pm  Monday thru Friday

This camp is organized for those at the Advanced level, ages 9 and older.   Riders must be able to canter confidently and jump a small course to attend this camp.   Bring your own horse or ride one of ours.   The focus will be on having fun, mounted games and learning advanced skills both mounted and unmounted.   This camp is limited to 12 riders and will be split into smaller groups for riding.   Mostly we will have fun, hang out with horses and have fun!!  Crafts and afternoon water games are also scheduled.  Riders must have their own helmet and boots.
