FOOD: Please pack a reusable water bottle and a sack lunch. We do have a fridge AND a microwave available, but please pack things your child can do on their own. Please avoid packing excess sugar/sweets. Extra hyper kids do not learn as well, and do not benefit with the horses as well!
CLOTHING: Long pants/leggings, Smooth soled boots with a 1/2" minimum heel. Please pack clothing that can be easily moved in. Thick/heavy coats and clothing can be restrictive. In the colder months, gloves with grip work fantastic, and layers under their coat/pants. Please put hair in a low or loose hairstyle to accommodate for helmet wearing.
What do we do in camp?
We Ride of course! But we also learn how to water, clean, feed, and take care of horses. We learn about horses, tack, and care, but we also learn how to catch, halter, groom, saddle and handle the horses. Depending on time of year we might be indoor, outdoor or even on our Obstacle Course if the riders levels and weather permit. We have wonderful horses as teachers, who have been doing this job for collectively over 20+ Years. I am a master certified level Instructor, and am also pursuing another certification in PATH (Equine Assisted Riding). I have been teaching for 21 years, and have been a 4-H leader for over 15 years collectively. Learning, safety and fun are the number one goals, the rest is a bonus. No previous horse experience is necessary!
We focus on teaching horsemanship skills but also teaching mental health and emotional regulation skills as well. Horses are amazing partners in teaching self confidence, self esteem, setting boundaries, emotional regulation, relationship skills and more, and we heavily accent this during our teaching.
