Saturday camps are from 2:30-4:30pm and $60.

Saturday Young Rider Camps are held on select Saturday afternoons during the school year, as listed above. Riders ages 5 – 12 may register for as many of these dates as they want. Young Rider Camp is best for children who have seldom ridden and are looking for an introduction to riding basics, horse care, and responsibility taught in a safe and fun environment. The riding portion of the camp is on a leadline with an instructor giving one on one direction throughout the ride. The camp is focused on learning about horses and their care, and is very introductory in the riding portion.

Campers are organized into groups of up to 5 and rotate through four stations:

1. Grooming
2. Riding
3. Horse chores
4. Craft activity teaching horse care

2023 Summer Young Rider Camp

Thanks for a great summer!! We will post 2024 camp dates in January.

Young Rider Camp is from 9:00-11:00am and is $199.  There is an optional 3rd hour to extend the camp till noon (additional $99).

These camps are best for children who have seldom ridden and are looking for an introduction to riding basics, horse care, and responsibility taught in a safe and fun environment. Riders ages 5 – 12 will come to the stables for 5 days (Monday through Friday) to learn what it’s like to own and ride your own horse. There is an optional third hour (Lunch with Horses) where campers participate in bonus activities such as obstacle courses, bareback riding, and a costume parade!

Each rider learns basic horse care skills, such as grooming, hoof cleaning, tack care, barn chores, and how to maintain the well being of horses. Each child will ride every day and they will receive individual attention while riding. The instructor stays with the rider and horse, on a leadline, and helps them maintain proper position while guiding the horse. The emphasis of this camp is on safety and respect for the horse and his care, and offers a full picture of life around horses, and is very introductory in the riding portion.

Campers are organized into groups of 5-6 and rotate through four 30 minute stations:

1. Grooming
2. Riding
3. Horse chores
4. Craft activity teaching horse care

Equestrian camp is best for a beginner rider who is interested in taking riding lessons and more independence than the Young Rider Camp. Campers will receive a lesson each day and learn care of the horses. Campers are grouped by ability and riders will develop their skills, whether they’ve never been on a horse, or have taken lessons. In camp we will teach valuable horsemanship skills such as bathing, braiding, horse anatomy and equine first aid.

This camp is designed for a rider who is interested in developing their riding and horsemanship skills, and pursuing weekly riding lessons. Please call or email Mackenzie if you have questions about your child’s riding level.
