Description
Day Camp is offered to any beginner or advanced rider, ages 6 and older. (Camps do not need to have had any horse experience.) The rider must be 6 or older by their camp week. Riders will be grouped according to skill level during lessons. At the beginner level, riders will learn how to be safe and comfortable around the horses.
Riders will learn the basics of riding including walk, halt, steering, and beginning to work at the posting trot. At the intermediate to advanced level, our campers will continue to work on skills learned in the past including; trotting on correct diagonals, balance of horse and rider, bending of horse, progress to or solidify canter or lope and work on identifying correct leads & jumping if riding level warrants. The focus will be on more advanced riding skills, including preparation for horse shows. Camp will begin each weekday at 9:00 am and finish at 4:00 pm.
Please note NCH Summer Camp programs are non-refundable.
