Thinking of joinCamper Riding Horseing our Equestrian Team?

 

Living Accommodations
Equestrian staff live above our dining hall where they have access to a lounge, small kitchen, and Wifi. Two staff are in a room with bathrooms down the hallway. It is always fun to wake up to fresh food in the morning. 

 

Program
Our program includes 10 schooling horses that have gone through the ropes in their younger years. They are experienced and excited to be at camp where they can help teach campers to ride. Staff teach English style riding to our campers and are assigned to 2 horses where they are in charge of their daily care. Staff also teach horsemanship classes where campers can learn about equestrian care.
