Our summer camp is a fun opportunity for children to learn the responsibilities of horsemanship. In addition to further developing their riding skills, the un-mounted portion teaches students about all aspects of horse care. Topics include parts of the horse and tack, proper grooming, horse breeds, the differences in riding disciplines and show preparations. Our camp provides instruction for all levels, from beginners to advanced.
