Description
Campers will discover the wonderful world of horses! In the beginning of the week have fun grooming, and braiding a variety of ponies and horses. Mid-week we will learn about tack and equipment, basic movement, and styles of riding, and routine care for equines. As the week moves on, we will learn basic horse handling skills, the importance of balance and exercise to equine anatomy and even try out a mock show. Each day we will mount and learn to ride. While on horseback we will play games and learn skills congruent with each participants’ individual skill levels. Toward the end of the week, campers will enjoy a pony painting party and parade, followed by a pony bathing party! Our younger campers will create and bring home their own hobby horses. This week is all ages and beginner friendly!

Cancellation policy
To provide the best possible experience, deposits are used to plan and secure staff for our school and camp seasons. For this reason, all deposits are non-refundable.
Additional Policies:
Homeschool Program: We work hard to meet the needs of each age group, and spend much time intentionally staffing so that each child is well-supported when they are here. For this reason, the days you register for are not transferrable.
Camp: If you do need to cancel due to illness, we are happy to apply your balance to a future program, available camp week, after school club, or school vacation week program.
We appreciate your understanding and support as these policies help us maintain the quality and consistency of our programs. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re here to help!
