Riding Lesson:

Each day campers will have a riding lesson on a horse of their choice. Our closely supervised instruction will provide students with a solid riding foundation and the necessary skills to communicate properly with their horse. During riding lessons, riders benefit from a 1:4 instructor-to-rider ratio, ensuring quality instruction while encouraging skill development and confidence. Beginner riders receive additional support from a dedicated leader to promote safety and build a strong foundation. Our facility features three riding arenas, including a fully equipped indoor arena, allowing lessons to continue comfortably and safely during inclement weather.

Games & Contests:

To make learning fun and exciting, we’ve created a variety of interactive contests and games for campers to enjoy — with prizes awarded throughout the week. These activities encourage teamwork, creativity, and horsemanship skills in a lively and supportive environment. Camp favorites include the always-entertaining horseless horse show, the hands-on grooming contest, an engaging question-and-answer challenge, and an adventurous scavenger hunt. There’s always something fun happening at camp!

Demonstrations:

Throughout the week, campers participate in a variety of engaging horse-related demonstrations led by equestrian professionals, offering valuable insight and inspiration. Campers look forward to these scheduled demonstrations, where they learn through observation and hands-on experiences. During the farrier demonstration, they witness a horse’s hooves being trimmed and prepared for a new set of shoes. Our experienced staff also demonstrate proper horse care techniques and basic health care. Campers additionally enjoy watching professional riders showcase their skills.

Arts & Crafts:

Each day, campers enjoy a variety of horse-themed arts and crafts that spark creativity and reinforce what they’ve learned in the barn. Throughout the week, they create and decorate a special keepsake journal filled with their horse knowledge, fun facts, drawings, and camp memories. Campers also have their photo taken with their favorite horse and decorate it as a treasured keepsake to remember their special week at camp!

Professional Photographs:

Each week, a photograph will be taken of every camper with their favorite horse. During arts and crafts, campers will decorate a picture frame to create a special keepsake.
