Summer Riding Camps
Our camp warmly welcomes children of a variety of ages, including those with behavioral or intellectual needs.
We aim to create an inclusive, supportive, and engaging environment where all can thrive. The prerequisite for our program is the physical capability to participate in basic introductory horseback riding and the ability to safely follow directions. We understand that every child is unique, so we offer an adaptable approach to learning, allowing all participants to engage at their own pace. To ensure a positive and beneficial experience, we welcome external support staff to accompany campers, ensuring they receive any additional support they may require.
