SUMMER CAMPS
Camps are available June-August to riders age 6-9 (Mini Camps – half day programs) and 10-13 (Full Day Camps). Our camp programs teach riders from a range of levels: Beginner through Fundamentals of Jumping!
All camps include mounted riding instruction and unmounted horsemanship instruction. See more information on these camp types below.
Summer camp opens for current students on Sunday 1/19 at noon, returning campers will receive an email link on Friday 1/24/25 at noon, and this page will be updated on Friday 1/31/25 with a current registration link for next students. (We know that the registration button does not currently work – it will work when we open to new students.)
Once a camp week is full a waitlist for each camp week will automatically open on the registration link. We strongly encourage you to sign up for the individual camp waitlists. We try very hard to accommodate as many interested people as possible.
*Please Note: our programs and facility are not equipped to accommodate riders with Special Needs.
Mini Camps
,Ages 6-9, Beginner through Walk-Trot
Morning Session 9:00am-12:00pm
Afternoon Session 1:00pm-4:00pm
With a ratio of four campers to every one staff member, safety and quality instruction are top priorities for our youngest riders. The curriculum is designed to introduce campers to the fundamentals of riding and horse care in a fun and safe environment.
Campers should choose either the AM or PM session and should not enroll in both as the sessions are designed for different campers from morning to afternoon. The camp curriculum repeats itself for the afternoon session, and we do not have staff available to watch campers during the hour break between sessions.
Cost per one-week session………$675.00
