Horseback Riding

Instruction

Are you ready to start “horsin’ around?” Camp is the summer home to 14 horses – who all seem to earn a place in the heart of someone each summer. The riding director and her capable staff work to ensure a safe and quality environment for equestrian instruction, from novice to advanced skills.

 

Program Details

The option of signing up for three hours per week of horseback riding is included in your camp tuition. Enjoy trail rides through the Nicolet National Forest. Learn new skills in one of our three instructional rings. Participate in a riding gymkhana (games on horseback), or showcase your skills in the annual horse show at the conclusion of the summer.

 

Lessons

Horseback riding lessons are available to all campers who choose to take them and are included in the base tuition for all sessions (three lessons/week). We do offer an additional option if your camper would like to take an additional three lessons, which would be a total of six lessons per week. All skill levels are accepted.
