Our instructors are professionals, accommodating beginners as well as advanced riders. Safety is emphasized with every lesson. Our horses are carefully chosen for gentleness and dependability, and all riders wear safety-approved helmets. Children age 3.5 through the second grade ride ponies and go through a program of riding readiness. Third grade campers and older pursue more advanced techniques and grooming and tacking skills.
Swimming is run by our own certified instructors and lifeguards.
Each camper is carefully tested when he or she enters camp. Regardless of age, special care is given to campers who are non-swimmers or beginning swimmers. Group swim instruction is offered twice a week to campers entering first through fifth grades. Outdoor living skills include campsite and shelter preparation, health and safety in the woods, hiking, map and compass skills, knots and lashing, outdoor cooking, and basic first aid skills. Campers in first through third grades have a chance to camp out every session in platform tents located on the grounds.
