Summer Camp
Trying new things, making friends and challenging yourself – these are at the core of our camp program design. Campers are each assigned a travel group for the week that will stick with them on their adventures. Each day is made up of experiences from our three major program areas along with an open-choice rec activity period. We are constantly adding to and improving our program offerings.
Camp Activities
Most offerings fall under one of our four activity areas which include the following:
Climbing Program
Horsemanship Program
Campers will develop their equestrian skills through quality instruction in a positive, safe, and fun atmosphere.
See the section below on our Horsemanship Program for details on each star level!
Barn Management includes feeding and watering horses, caring for bunnies, chores and upkeep around a barnyard, grooming and bathing horses, saddling horses and caring for equipment. This hands-on experience allows kids to get more time around the various animals at the barn, big and small.
For campers looking for a more laid-back experience, there is opportunity to study horse anatomy, breed, diet, equipment and more in an interactive barn loft classroom.

Horsemanship Program
Horsemanship Program
Riders in our Western Town Camps are given the choice of Lesson Riding or Trail Riding upon registration. Lesson riders participate in our five-star, CHA-approved horsemanship program. Upon arrival, campers are placed in a level based on their riding ability. Riders progress as they learn more advanced skills.
Lessons are taught in our arenas and round pen, allowing campers to learn new skills in a more controlled environment. The week ends with a skill-tailored trail ride for the class. Alternatively, if riding lessons are not a main interest, campers can opt to just participate in a trail ride during the week.
*In any given week of camp there are only 60 lesson riding spots and 30 trail spots – spots are designated during registration and are subject to first-come first serve. If all lesson spots are filled at the time of registration, riding option automatically defers to trail riding.
