Welcome to the Junior Camp! If you don't already know our main camp horse Bo, let me introduce you! Bo is a 14 year old quarter horse gelding who loves kids and has been giving lessons to all ages for over 5 years. During his free time, he enjoys eating and running in his pasture. Junior Camp is designed for ages 8-12 years old and will be split into 4 sessions over the course of a month. Sessions are approximately 2hrs. Parents are encouraged to stay but are not required.
Camp Limit: 5 Riders
$35 per session
Equine Education:
We begin each session with an equine education lesson. Children will then groom and saddle the horse. While a rider is working in the arena the other students will be working on a packet based on that day's equine lesson. There will be a staff member available to assist kids during this portion. A snack will be provided during each session.

Each rider will have an individual riding time of 15-20 minutes where they will be developing and continuing to grow their confidence in the saddle while being closely monitored. It is important for the rider to feel

It is important for the rider to feel confident and in control, so riding sessions will be tailored to each rider's individual pace.
